[QUOTE="unlacedgecko, post: 4361668, member: 19130"] I used to have a book called "Basic Butchery of Livestock and Game" written by an American slaughterhouse vet. In it, he says that they would often have cull cows calve in the lairage or on the killing floor. Apparently the resultant calves were colloquially referred to as "Louisiana Swamp Veal". I once read a book about the Iditarod sled dog race. The musher there said that these calves, and any foetus discovered at the abattoir were not fit for human consumption. So they're ground up and used to feed the sled dogs. The book said a rather coarse grind is used, and it wasn't uncommon to find whole eye balls in the mix. [/QUOTE]
