MEATS, STOCK SOUPS, AND GELATIN
MEATS are derived from the flesh of domestic and wild ani-
mals chiefly if not exclusively of herbivorous habits, and from
fowls. The most important kinds are beef (ox), veal (calf),
mutton (sheep), lamb (young sheep), pork (pig), ham and
bacon (pig) , venison (deer) . Poultry includes chickens, turkeys,
ducks and geese, guinea hens, and game birds.
The quality of meat is dependent on the condition of the
animal from which it is derived. Of all the foods, meat is the
one most subject to conditions rendering it unwholesome or even
dangerous. Certain diseases of animals are communicable to
man through eating of the flesh, and there is danger that through
lack of cleanliness in slaughterhouses and exposure to dust
and flies, meat may be infected with Bacillus enteritidis which
produces poisonous products which are not destroyed by cook-
ing and which are now considered to be the commonest cause
of food poisoning - - so-called " ptomaine ' poisoning.
The United States Department of Agriculture, under the
meat inspection law of 1906, provides for the inspection of
establishments which send products into foreign or interstate
commerce. There are, however, many establishments which
do business entirely within one state and they may or may not
have local inspection. For the need of state inspection see
United States Department of Agriculture, Bureau of Animal
Industry, Circular 154 (1908).
In meat as it is purchased we have bone, fat, and the flesh,
consisting of the muscle of the animal with its connective tissue.
