Beware Britain. The final post-Brexit trade deal with America will
bring with it all sorts of public health dangers – not least, the
reduction of very high food standards. Britain has one of the safest
food chain systems in the world – America is listed as the 7th worst in the world.
It is estimated that with current US food poisoning rates translated to
Britain’s population, the NHS will be picking up an additional cost of
£1billion. This latest piece of information only goes to highlight just
how far the American’s will go to make a buck.


 


By Robin Shreeves MNN: Remember the “pink slime
controversy from earlier this decade? It was a name given to a ground
beef filler by the media and popularized by celebrity chef Jamie Oliver.
The company that produces the product, Beef Products Inc., called it
“lean, finely textured beef” (LFTB). The USDA’s Food Safety and
Inspection Service (FSIS) has given the go-ahead for the South Dakota
company to label the product ground beef, according to The New Food Economy.
