It is well known that frankfurters are not really a light and above all healthy dish.Authentic gluttony omnipresent in grilling, this food - whether it is made up of chicken, turkey or pork - is actually to be avoided as much as possible.And to confirm it now comes a somewhat disconcerting discovery that has become viral on TikTok in a short time.Some users of the platform, in fact, have decided to investigate the composition of the sausages in more detail using a microscope.In general, meanwhile, it is good to know that frankfurters, both chicken and turkey, are made from meat scraps mostly separated mechanically.To these, aromas and dyes are added.But if you think pork frankfurters are better, don't be fooled: even in these products, a certain amount of meat is used mixed with salt, flavorings, sugar and other additives.But what exactly are the ingredients that make up the tasty sausage in its final version, as we find it in the supermarket?The discovery under the microscope is one that could change our tastes forever as well as keep us off the shelf for quite some time ... The videos posted on TikTok, in fact, reveal how the sausages contain elements of various kinds, and not always components of food origin.The lens brings to the human eye what appear to be unidentified spots and, mixed with the flesh, fibers that look like hair.Now, in response to these images, other videos have been published that demonstrate how there is only meat and nothing else in sausages.The fact that possible hairs or other non-food elements are traced could, in fact, be the result of an optical game depending on where the sausage is placed.It is therefore difficult to say where the truth lies but that the frankfurter is to be avoided at the table remains a fact.© Italiaonline SpA 2022 Management and coordination of Libero Acquisition S.á rl VAT number 03970540963
