Answer to Question 1

Finfish and shellfish are very lean sources of meat. Since smaller amounts of connective tissue are present in fish muscle than in meat muscle, cooking methods/times that tenderize connective tissue are not required for fish.

Answer to Question 2

It is expected that the lowest priced turkey product will appear to have more fillers and emulsifiers present. The price of the turkey typically correlates with the overall quality and quantity of fillers and emulsifiers.
