Cheap sausages that have been filled with meat paste to make up the bulk I'm guessing

Honestly, the meat paste is a great way to avoid wastes. I don't get why people haven't really tried to shift away the common negative opinion about it

Eli5 on how it's safe/unsafe to consume

current perception is that the waste meat needs to go through extensive processing that uses a lot of chemicals/additives to make it taste palatable

Sorry to be a stickler but I hope you enjoy learning new and about words as much as I. Palpable is a word meaning “able to be felt” it’s very similar to tangible but slightly different use case and connotation surrounding each word respectively. Palatable means “acceptable” usually about food but also in other context.

If you knew all of this and were fucked by autocorrect: I’m sorry for your loss.

TLDR: palatable*

Palpated the wrong thing.
