Past experience tells me that this is probably solution-injected. If that sort of thing matters to you, best to check the label or ask before purchasing.

And we now await the reliable comments often made related to this news.

How do you know they were not from a cryovac package? I know I don't where everything is sourced.

Thanks for the update on what is available at Cermak Fresh Market. It appears they changed vendors for their meats.
Maybe 10 years ago, I could buy pig ears for 59 cents a pound. I would smoke these for the family dogs. I have now shifted toward snouts. If I buy pig ears, it is pickled for us.
At Park Packing, there are always beef testicles and penises. Penises usually run around $10 a pound, though were on sale for $5 some months ago. I have heard these can be made into dog treats. My veg sister refused my offer to make some for her pets.
There was this show where people would be challenged to eat variety parts I had never seen like pig anus and pig uterus. These parts and other rare bits can be found at Park Packing.
Again, thanks!
Regards,

I recall hearing that less than 5% of the pork production was compliant to this California law.
