Social media users are pledging to convert to veganism over a viral video showing freshly cut meat “twerking” after being salted. The video of the pulsating protein first went viral on Twitter in 2020, but recently resurfaced on the platform, where it “grossed out” over 121,000 views.
“Adding salt to freshly cut muscle causes it to spasm,” reads the caption to the gyrating steak footage, which was reposted by the Twitter account “Weird and Terrifying.”
In the nightmare-inducing clip, an unnamed butcher can be holding up a piece of raw beef as it spasms like a piece of live fish sashimi.
According to Scientific American, this beef zombification occurs when the nerve endings in freshly cut meat are activated by sodium ions, which causes the muscles to contract.
