"Dilute" is probably the correct description
I know that a lot of meat used to contain large quantities of water to maximise the weight. I'm not sure if that's still legal. Probably also the fact that a lot of it is intensively raised in the cheapest way possible.

Lots of meat still does. Experiments with Value bacon in times of skintness have conclusively proved this.

I've done that
"Oh, I think I'll buy this bacon, there's so much more of it for the same price."
*Grills*
"Fuck. Where did it go?"
