    Summary

    Donald Trump warned the UK must accept chlorinated US chicken imports if it wants relief from new 10% tariffs on British exports.

    The U.K. has long reaffirmed its commitment to maintaining high food standards, with polling showing 80% of Britons oppose a ch imports.

    Critics argue chlorinated chicken stems from poorer production hygiene, with studies showing high bacteria rates in US chicken.

    Farming advocates warn a US trade deal with lower standards would be "devastating for British farming."

    If you accept, there's no guarantee he won't change the deal later. He's a chud.

        How is it even legal for the US to wash chicken with Chlorine ? Sounds like so ridiculous.

          Studies have shown that washing food in chlorine doesn't actually work as US authorities think. It can put the bacteria into a survival state called VBNC, viable but non-culturable. This means labs cannot culture the bacteria to test for its presence, but it is present and can still cause illness. It hides the problem, allowing for lower safety practices in favor of productivity and profit. Here is one such study: https://journals.asm.org/doi/full/10.1128/mbio.00540-18

              The first time around, I said I didn't want him dead because I wanted him to face justice. I wanted him to rot in a cell while he watched the world prosper without him in power and see his efforts dismantled.

              That was misguided.

              Ah, I see you had faith in America. Me too. He will most certainly escape justice. But we may yet save the Republic.

                    Probably trying to make a buck off blighted fetid fowl.

                    [T]he U.S. discards nearly 60 million tons—or 120 billion pounds—of food annually, amounting to about 40% of the national food supply. This equates to 325 pounds of waste per person, or the equivalent of each American throwing away 975 average-sized apples every year. Alarmingly, food waste is the largest component of municipal solid waste in landfills, making up 22% of the total. The environmental cost is staggering, with food waste generating methane emissions that significantly contribute to climate change. - forbes link from jan '25

                    In case anyone was wondering, signs of avian flu at the market: bloody legs; slimy, filmy meat.

                            Sounds like the american way. Hide the problem in the name of profits rather than finding a real solution.

                            Note: am american, and hate this mindset

                                    It was lost a long time ago for the lower classes and those with the least power. It’s the middle class that it’s catching up to.

                                        All you need to do to not need the chlorine wash is to not treat the animals so badly that they shit all over each other due to lack of space.
                                        Improve their welfare improve the product, but no. Dollars come first.
