Pink slime I think is what it's called..

I bought myself a large 12v fridge/freezer combo which I'll now use in my travels. This way I can just buy direct at small farms like I mentioned above.. The site I was talking about was eatwild.com has a large directory of local farms that sell direct and most seem to grow organically, so you get real meat with out all the extra slime..
