Yes, only they won't be able to find out what they are buying because labeling chlorinated chickens will (for obvious commercial reasons) be not allowed.Originally posted by Platypus View PostPeople don't have to buy them if they don't want to.
I guess there will be a market for field testing kinds, should be plenty left from WW1Comment

Do you think US trade negotiators are stupid? They are not: country of origin labelling rules will be abandoned or changed to include only the first letter, now that's fair trade.Originally posted by Platypus View PostCountry of Origin = USA might be a clue!Comment

The US don't like labelling regulations. The UK will have to get rid of them.
US chickens will have European flags plastered all over them, and terms such as "bio". There will be no mention of the salmonella with which the chickens will be riddled, nor the chlorine they use to wash them.
The first you will know that you've eaten a US chicken will be a wave of nausea a few hours after consuming it.

Then I suppose I'd have to be more careful buying chicken and hope that other consumers are smart enough to do the same for themselves. Won't be long before the clever supermarkets start to use "non chlorinated" labels on their organic chickens when they see sales reducing.Originally posted by AtW View PostDo you think US trade negotiators are stupid?

Or I'll switch to beef. You know, the American stuff, full of growth hormones
