It's like the Trifecta of Anti-Pink Slime today! First Weis, then Acme...and now Giant!
Giant Food Stores of PA announced today that they will no longer carry meats ground with pink slime
You can read their official statement (you will need to be able to read a .PDF document) or you can read what they had to say on the Giant of PA Facebook Fan page.
I don't often say this, but WELL DONE Giant!

Awesome!! Any word on Wal-Mart's stance on this? I may have to switch to Giant for meat now.

Walmart has no comment on Pink Slime...which you know means taht they use it (given the negative PR, if they DIDN"T use it, they would say it!)

Right. I would have been shocked if they didn't, honestly.

The 2 major grocery chains in the Chicagoland area announced today that they won't use it anymore either!

Wegman's and Top's never put pink slime in their meat

I will be closely inspecting the meat anyway.. it just looks different!

Wegmans says that they do. They call it "lean beef trimmings" instead of "finely textured meat".
