Meat packing plants don't feed cattle. So they don't use grain. I worked at Wilson Foods several years ago and we used everything but the squeal. Beef plants are the same except the moo. The waste from the holding pens goes to an onsite pretreat plant which looks like a normal waste treatment plant and then is put into the municipal sewer for final treatment. Blood is dryed for blood meal, bone for bone meal after the meat is boiled off them for hotdogs and lunchmeat.. Hides and intestines are sent by semi for rendering or tanning for some hides. Stomachs go to Europe along with kidneys and other organs which people eat over there. Yech! Brains are ate by people too. Anything else not used, like eyes and ears and A holes go to hotdogs, only kidding??? Go to rendering. Rendering plants are almost always offsite, USDA reg?, and is used for glue and dog food. All wastes are transported by truck to rendering due to need to get them there before they spoil without wateful chilling.
