Potted Tongue.
Оглавление—The term “potted tongue” may apply equally to tongue of a single character, such as beef, lamb, pork, or swine, or the mixture thereof. The examinations which have been made of the potted tongues of commerce do not indicate whether they are of a single character or whether the tongues are derived from a variety of sources. The mean composition of twenty-one samples bought in the open market, as found in the Bureau of Chemistry, is given in the following table:
| Water, | 52.50 | percent |
| Water in the fat-free substance, | 67.67 | „ |
| Fat, | 22.99 | „ |
| Protein, | 17.80 | „ |
