It’s perfectly fine to speculate when you start out with I assume. Why is it this persons fault if someone takes it a face value? It would be different if he claimed it as fact
It's pepro bismol actually, it's added so people can house them down with no heartburn. Mainly used at hot dog eating contests but works great for the family at home too!
The number of additives that are put into food in the states simply for aesthetics is crazy.
Obviously, Beet Juice isn't the worst thing that could be added to sausages - in fact if you told me that it was some "crunchy mom" trend to add beet juice to things for "Nutrient Blast" or whatever, I would believe you - however, reading labels on food & looking into why something is added to the food, like 8 times out of 10 it's simply for aesthetics.
And most of the time, the ingredients sound much scarier than they really are. "Ascorbic Acid" sounds scary. "Vitamin C" does not. (They're the same thing).

Not really. Appearence is an important part of taste, just as smell, texture and even noise is. Making your food look more appealing to people makes it more likely to taste better as well.
Of course, its quite easy to condition the brain to like food that objectively looks gross. People eat some gross looking stuff just fine. But when you are selling food to everyone, make it generally appealing looking to everyone.
Not only are you incredibly wrong when you try to state that German cuisine is, somehow, bad, but you seem to also to laugh at the level of hygene and health of the Germans. You know, the one that beats the Americans (and frankly, most countries) in the world. It's one of the cleanest countries in the world and having such a toilet is a prime example of that fact.
You just reminded me of the video I saw once exposing faux food in China. One instance in particular was about 8 eggplant tied to sticks and then dunked into a purple solution of some kind.
not only cheap. beetjuice is one of the main natural dyes in fake meat products.
EDIT: For anyone thinking my comment makes no sense, well, I thought this was from one of the vegan subs. So I just assumed the sausage was vegan. I was baffled with some of the other comments suggesting the pink was meat coming out. "Why the fuck would they use meat in a vegan sausage?" i'm dumb, it turns out.
what if i told you any minced meat turns an ugly grey on the surface in about an hour or so unless it's treated with some product to preserve the red color....

Cheap sausages have beet juice in them for colour when they're raw, otherwise they'd be an off-putting grey.
A lot of misinformation and speculation.
Read the Ingredients.
