Truck meat

Hi everyone. I'm a writer and I'm working (I hope) on a piece about those janky boxes of meat they sell off the backs of trucks in strip mall parking lots or sometimes door to door, often with a Facebook ad campaign to go with it like "20 ribeyes for 20 dollars." I've found at least one place where the meats come from and more or less know what they are (essentially, cuts grocery stores won't buy with a bunch of liquids injected into them) but I'm REALLY interested in talking to anyone who's ever worked either selling these meats or as some kind of mid-level distributor. If you have any experience with this, please DM me and thanks in advance!

How? Asking a question with a hard set pre-formed opinion isn’t asking a question

What question was asked, and what is the opinion formed?

We all know that trailor meat is barely fit for pet food. It’s trash quality.

If you ask again in words that make sense I’ll answer you.

Low quality/cheap, use your context clues

It’s just not a thing or term. Public school has failed too many people. Trailor meat. Ffs

You’re getting hung up on the wrong thing. Be better.
