The method of Convex Integration has revealed a number of rather disturbing facts concerning well-posedness of the Euler system of gas dynamics. In particular, there is a dense set of "wild" initial data, for which the problem admits infinitely many physically admissible (entropy) weak solutions. We identify the class of initial data enjoying the following properties: (a) they give rise to a family of weak solutions with increasing entropy profiles; (b) the solutions are "discrete", meaning they attain only a finite number of constant states; (c) the solutions reach a prescribed terminal entropy profile when time goes to infinity.
