Cut into a pork loin at 5am and hit a 3 inch abscess, lost the whole primal and my morning
Was breaking down a 9 pound loin last Tuesday at the shop, first cut of the day, knife goes in and this yellow gunk just oozes out. Whole thing was shot. USDA guy said it happens, happen to him twice a year. I tossed it, scrubbed the block with bleach three times, and told the owner we eat the $22 cost. Now I run my fingers along every loin before I even reach for the knife. Any of you ever get one that slipped past the plant inspection?

Yikes, that lymph node check should be standard everywhere.
