OOPS: Pork Tenderloin - Frustrated

Recommended Posts

I don't know why it did not post my content and posted several times. It was from my phone. Weird! Anyway, so frustrated.  Was fixing dinner - pork green chili.  All it is veggies and pork tenderloin. So yummy! Well just happened to look at the pork tenderloin label at it says dextrose. WTH?  So I will not be eating the dinner I fixed but everyone else can.  I just thought I would check the label since bacon etc has sugar, never thought a whole tenderloin would have one. My husband is like - this diet is stupid.  Why can't you have the pork.  UGH!  Day 5 and irritated.  Thanks for letting me vent.

I understand your frustration.

 

I see a lot of pork in the supermarket that contain "enhancements" to make it tender and to give it flavor. I figure it's factory farmed and doesn't have a good natural flavor. I don't often spend the extra for pastured pork, so I look for lean cuts without flavors added. I've had good luck at Costco with pork that's cut and wrapped by the onsite butchers.
