A company that uses genomic testing to analyze food ingredients found that over 14% of hot dogs and sausages they tested contained products you would not expect to find in them including some with human DNA!
The company, Clear Foods, analyzed 345 hot dogs and sausages that came from 75 different brands. The products were collected from 10 different retailers including Target, Walmart, Safeway, Trader Joe's, Whole Foods and more.
* 2% of the samples had human DNA.
* 10% of the vegetarian products contained meat.
* 3% of the products had pork substituted for chicken or turkey.
* 4 of the 21 vegetarian products they sampled had hygienic problems.
* The Kosher products they tested were 100% pork free (which is good news if you avoid pork).
