10% Solution?

I was at a large retailer recently and looked through their steaks. They were beautiful and red, because they are vacuum packed in carbon dioxide to retain their color and give a longer shelf life. Reading the small print, you'll see, "This product may contain up to 10% solution." What is this solution? Processors inject steaks with a saline solution to keep their moisture content high. That means you're paying steak prices for salt water. Or their steak prices are a little lower because 10% of the weight is not steak at all. Where was this beef from, and under what conditions was it produced? There's no way to know.

The ingredient label on one package of steaks listed this: Beef, Beef Broth, Potassium and Sodium Phosphate, Salt, Potassium Lactate, and Natural Flavors. There was 370mg of sodium for a 4oz serving. The beef you get from Sabine Creek Ranch contains one ingredient: natural, delicious beef.
