"When meat is deboned, there's always a little trim left over and there was never a good use for that trim. Eldon Roth decided that if we could make this perfectly clean and sanitary, it would be perfect for ground meat."

"Jamie Oliver is the single biggest culprit in [the misrepresentation of the meat industry]. He spoke in almost complete ignorance of the process and the product. There was no scientific basis."

"Most people buy ground meat based on cost. The industry has known for years that ground beef is the most price sensitive product."

"The vast majority of antibiotics used in feedlots are not the same products as are used on humans. At this point my gut reaction is that the industry may be using too many antibiotics but not nearly as much as some say."

"It's not me to be sitting behind a desk and pushing buttons, I'd rather be making something and getting my hands dirty."

"I always consider myself as somebody who was born to eat. I'd eat quail, frogs legs, anything I could get my hands on."

"I love the way after I smell after a full day of cooking pastries and cakes"
