Plumping
Plumping, also referred to as “enhancing” or “injecting,” is the process by which some poultry companies inject raw chicken meat with saltwater, chicken stock, seaweed extract, or some combination thereof. The practice is most commonly used for fresh chicken and is also used in frozen poultry products, although other meats may also be plumped.Poultry producers have injected chicken (and other meat) with saltwater solutions since the 1970s, claiming it makes for tastier, juicier meat. According to Kenneth McMillin, Professor of Meat Science at the Louisiana State University Agricultural Center in Baton Rouge, processors use multiple-needle injectors or vacuum-tumblers, that force the sodium solution into the muscle. Binding agents in the solution prevent the added salt and water from leaching out of the meat during transport, in grocery stores and during cooking.

Plumping refers to the act of making something fuller, thicker, or more enlarged, often through techniques such as injection, stuffing or hydrating. It can refer to both physical items and intangible concepts - for example, one might plump up a pillow by fluffing it, or plump up lips using certain cosmetic products. In the food industry, it often refers to the addition of water or other substances to meat or poultry to increase their weight.
