What the hell is this...

Found in a steak pie for me dinner tonight. I usually don't fret for a little gristle but this looks and felt like something much worst.
Grimmest thing I've come across.

I had something similar in a steak bake from Greggs a while back, put me off... Could hardly chew it, it felt rubbery

It took me back to when I was in Tokyo and got invited to a proper local eatery. Chicken hearts.... Eugh savage feeling that was too but at least I knew what it was. This was just rank, hidden in the gravy too so a meat pie yuk surprise.

It's one of the five 'golden gristles'. You have won a tour of the eccentric pie makers factory, but don't drink out of the gravy river :eek:

Bit of a valve out of a cows heart probably (and if you are lucky!)

Looks like an aortic valve. Honestly tasty if you're expecting it, a bit off-putting if you aren't.

But can you say it's not steak?

Semple · 21 Feb 2021 at 22:54

Could literally be anything.

Have you tried to cut it open? What brand was the pie/where did it come from?

mmmmmmm, tubes in meat

The examiner pulled something similar looking out when I did my anatomy viva in the Royal College of Surgeons. I don’t think I could identify the pathology even now!

Probably best not eaten though...!

Spoke to Asda chat and they literally gave me a refund on the spot. Said they'd refer it to the supply chain but I guess these things happen. As mentioned I get it, little gristle but this was a good inch or so. Still makes me sick seeing it

Hotwired · 22 Feb 2021 at 20:42

The gristle mincer was probably broken that day.

Im appalled at the attitudes of sone people here, we have literally no idea how lucky we are when we are complaining about that in foods when others would (literally) kill for something to eat.

Edit: Actually, that take most of that post back I see most of the posts are a good **** take, so fair enough.
