What it means
Our interpretation.
Louise describes the meat in hamburgers through the violent fact of the animals’ deaths. Turns out makes that familiar ingredient sound like a newly exposed secret. The choice of murdered changes the moral tone of the description, without supplying evidence of an unusual recipe or a separate crime.
