And might be if that display case is just room temp all day.

Mincemeat can be meat ground up with dried fruit so this isn't too bad. It's the blue color that's off-putting.

I'd probably try it if it were bison or venison.

For me it's like green ketchup. My eyes could just never get passed how it looked.

However I reckon if you cooked this it would smell divine, and after cooking it would look a lot less rancid.

"Shit, boss, we forgot to load these beef patties into the fridge! They've been sitting out here for like a week!"

"Wait, I have an idea..."

Folks that are oblivious to the fact they like sweet and savory.

Sweet and savory clash horribly. I will never understand why anybody wants to put syrup in or on their meat. Syrup is great on pancakes, but leave it off the bacon, sausage, and now apparently burgers.

It caramelizes on the grill, just like the sugar in BBQ sauce and gives you that char yet tasty flavour

Took me a whole minute of going back and forth between the sign and the patty in disbelief before I figured out it wasn't mold.

That's nasty, just what you'd expect from the food 'industry'. I get my ground beef from a small butcher shop, at least I know it's one animal.

Why, you could even go and meet the creature you're abusing. Possibly trick her into loving you before you kill her! She's capable of loving you, but you're not capable of loving her. And you think you're superior.

I found it too difficult to be a vegetarian, the closest I could get was being a vegetarian once removed: all the animals I eat are vegetarians.

Why would they do this vs putting the maple blueberries in a sauce or buns.

When I first saw it I was put off, but thinking about it once you cook it it will probably look less rotten and taste pretty good.

You should definitely heat it up to the suggested temp to make sure you kill whatever the blue shit is.

That's precisely the joke. Distrusts that it's blueberries and instead suggests it might be something else. Like gobs of mold.

Blueberries don’t make this kind of colour, so this is food dye.

It is likely the blue skins ground in and not just the reddish juice stain

As a colorblind meat eater, Thank you for the temperature warning. The blue would probably mess with my understanding of how done the meat is.

As for the other comments saying it looks rancid... wish I had that awareness for meat color lol

One of the primary uses for color vision is to tell the freshness of food. That's actually true of smell and taste as well. Amazing how much evolution has had to spend on "can I eat this?".

I think if I lost smell and taste due to the times I ended up with covid...i would have lost my mind.

My sense of smell is very limited. I'd argue similar to mostly blind peoples vision. Very strong smells I can pick up, but it has to rise to a certain level before I can detect it. I think it is one of the reasons I like spicy food, it really cuts through.
