Meat-Judging Said
Problem for Housewife
Burlington, Vt. -IUPD- Eye
appealing transparent cover
ing has replaced the tradition
al butchers' brown wrapping
paper, but housewives still
have meat-judging problems.
The color of meats can be
judged through the transpar
ent films used in supermar
kets, but the customer still
must go-home before testing
the flavor and odor of meats,
said University of Vermont
home economist Elizabeth El
bert. The film covering which
shows off the desirable bright
red of beef and the delicate
pink of pork and veal must be
removed soon after the pre
packaged meats are brought
home, she said.
Meat retailers recommend
removing or loosening the
wrap to permit more circula
tion of air before the food is
refrigerated or stored by
freezing.
Meat kept in film -type
wrapping longer than three
days becomes discolored with
resulting impairment in odor
and flavor.
The word "Acronized" on
poultry indicates the bird has
been dipped into a chilled anti
biotic solution. Dr. Elbert said.
The process inhibits the
growth of bacteria and will
keep the bird fresh longer.
Freezing is an excellent
means of retarding bacterial
action but pre-packaged meat
or poultry must be given addi
tional wrapping before ex
posure to low temperatures.
