The baby food one and the transglutaminase one are sort of true, but still bullshit.
Baby food is often fortified with food-grade elemental iron, because it's more digestible than plant-based iron compounds but still vegetarian.
Transglutaminase is used to bond different meat pieces together, but the video is showing a perfectly normal piece of fat when it says it isn't. It does look like transglutaminase has been used on that piece of meat, but by an incompetent moron, rather than a meat processing plant, butcher or restaurant. Anybody actually using it would have produced a much better bond. It's also not 'American', really. It's used in most meat processing industries, even for high quality cuts of meat, where they've got poorly-trimmed cuts that wouldn't be saleable as-is, but would if bonded with another offcut.

The baby food thing is true not only for baby food but for any fortified food. Those rocks are actually the "iron" they fortify the food with, not calcium. That iron is not the same as naturally occurring iron and may actually cause serious health issues. Anyone who says that the "nutrients" fortified foods are just as good as the nutrients that naturally occur in foods are not to be trusted

Do an experiment, blend up some beef, put it in a bag, and put a little magnet on there and see if little metal chunks rise.
