    I can't shake that pic. It's been giving me that cold chill thinking about it all morning. I never go to Wally World and this reaffirms my stance.

    I don't do Walmart either but I have gotten Briskets from Sams and all the ones I have gotten from Walmart has been so much better. That will be my last one. Took it back this morning and showed the pictures to the meat manger and his response was "I guess I will let the warehouse know" yeah right!

    Devils Advocate @nolaegghead Eff Wal-Mart huh?  So this means it's not possible to receive this from a local butcher, RD etc (less likely maybe)?  Hey I've got some oceanfront property in Nebraska for sale for those that believe that :lol:

    @NPHuskerFL - I agree you can get that funk in any animal - that's an unsavory part of animal life. Might be from unnatural causes depending on the farmer's use of chemicals and drugs, but's not directly Wal-mart's fault.  Yes, it can happen in the best boutique meats. Now if they wouldn't take it back....different story.

    But still - eff them.  Because their beef quality in general sucks, the employees have long since given up being amiable and nice (in general), and the whole experience shopping there is one of depression and misery and long lines. So eff them.
    But @nolaegghead where else can you go where you are guaranteed to see at least 3 people shopping in pajamas?

    @sgh when you worked in a slaughter house would this be noticeable before packaging? Would other cuts of the cow also have similar tumers?

    Exactly - Wal-Mart is both a visual and a shopping experience, 300 pounders stuffed into PJs and tank tops made for 125 pounders with tat ink that is a sight to behold. I did not realize they had a horror department until this thread. 
    Delta B.C. - Whiskey and steak, because no good story ever started with someone having a salad!

    when my daughter goes to a wal-mart after midnight, she and her friends take bets on an over/under number for kids under 10 that they'll see and the over usually wins

    I found an abscess like that one on a pork shoulder when I first got me egg.  Not only was it unsightly but it stunk bad enough to knock a buzzard off a sh!t wagon.  Took it back to Publix and received a full refund + a whole new shoulder at no charge.

    Kinda like Dukes?  "Pukes" maybe?

    Seriously, I wish I could un-see that picture.  I've got a cast iron stomach and it made me gag.  May put me off brisket for a bit.

    Does anyone think that kind of thing ever happens to Aaron Franklin?
