Answers:

Meat contains iron, fat, and other compounds. When light hits a slice of meat, it splits into colors like a rainbow. There are various pigments in meat compounds that can give it an iridescent or greenish cast when exposed to heat and processing. Wrapping the meat in airtight packages and storing it away from light will help prevent this situation. Iridescence does not represent decreased quality or safety of the meat. Enjoy!



It won't kill you, dumb ***, but there's a chance it can make you sick. Food poisoning.



No but your poop might make a metallic sound when it hits......
LOL



Life is short .so, eat what ever you likes.
