Trump tells UK to buy chlorinated chicken from US if it wants tariff relief
-
UK is not EU.
But, does he know?
-
It's the best chlorinated chicken in the world, believe me, so beautiful...
Id like to know more about the chlorine part. What have I been eating?
-
But it is in Europe, even though many Brits like do think their island isn't part of The Continent
.
I mean, look at the icon of the sub...
-
It wont be allowed to be marked as either from the US or chlorinated if it ever does come over. The people paying Trump to push this know that if the UK public can spot it they wont buy it so any deal would mandate that it doesn't have to be stamped.
If you can't spot it by looking at it, you can definitely spot it by eating it. You don't even need to tell people to boycott this stuff, people are able to read brand names and won't rebuy brands that taste rubbish anyway.
-
You can obfuscate it so that people won't even know what they're eating, though... Wouldn't be the first, or the last time...
They will do a taste test though, when they eat it. Then they'll swear to never buy that crappy brand again.

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."

As an American, don't accept this chicken. American chicken sucks. It's all fat and hormones with some meat in it and doesn't taste as good.
Plus chlorinated chicken is weak as fuck. I want brominated chicken. Or better yet, fluorinated chicken. Bathe the chickens in one of the cool halogens or don't even bother .
-

And all that's left is to hope that alternatives will still be available.

As a U.S. Citizen, PLEASE don't buy these products. Please don't give in.
It is funny, here in Sweden we have for decades looked down upon other countries in the EU, even our neighboring countries, for their "terrible" livestock practices.
If I see beef from Denmark or Ireland on the shelf, I will not buy it even if there is no alternative, if there is no Swedish beef, I will not buy beef that day.
And now from what I understand, the Drumpfster want us to buy food that is even lower quality?
lol.
Now, when I say that I only buy Swedish meat in the store, and that other nations livestock practices are "terrible", I mean it in that I have been told since I was born that other nations pump their animals full of antibiotics, while Sweden does not, and that other nations are "abusing" their livestock, Sweden does not.
I don't know how true this all is, but it absolutely affects my decisions on what to buy.

Sweden, number one exporter of beef,
all other countries have inferior beef!

Chlorine, growth hormones, and a looot of antibiotics.

So first he goes around begging for eggs, now he's back peddling disgusting low quality chicken. Coincidence?
Another chicken and egg problem.
