"Went to a BBQ over Labor Day where they served charcoal grilled Walmart steaks. I was very hungry and they sure smelled good. I tried to chew them for a few minutes but made little progress; it was very rubbery and had very little flavor. I guess what I was smelling was the charcoal. I would have been better off eating the charcoal."

and that's without going into the meat glue they use...
