Do you think US trade negotiators are stupid? They are not: country of origin labelling rules will be abandoned or changed

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.

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

Good time to become a Vegan, eh?

As in bugger off to Vega as this planet is done for.

US food products contain toxic chemicals banned in the UK

...but not for much longer

[Old Greg]

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 "biohazard".

FTFY

The first you will know that you've eaten a US chicken will be a wave of nausea a few hours after consuming it.

Country of Origin = USA might be a clue!

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.

Process it in the UK and it could be labelled as Product of UK.

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.

I guess there will be a market for field testing kinds, should be plenty left from WW1

People don't have to buy them if they don't want to.

Thus making case for chlorinated chickens stronger...

No one here will pay for one to find out how much squirrel DNA you have.

And where he has it.

[BrilloPad]

How much is DNA test these days? I am prepared to chip in for Churchy to find out he is Jewish, at least this way he’ll know why he hates himself so much

Thank God ze Germans did not have a railway system to move troops/equipment rapidly

Thank God Stalin was prepared to kill tens of millions to stop the Germans!

they did, but this was virtually destroyed by 1944 and so they had to rely more heavily on the road system and use more fuel, which they didn't have, Hence his target of the Caucasus early in the War.
