"Don't eat mould-ripened soft cheese (cheeses with a white rind) such as brie and camembert. This includes mould-ripened soft goats' cheese, such as chèvre. These cheeses are only safe to eat in pregnancy if they've been cooked."
"Soft blue cheeses
You should also avoid soft blue-veined cheeses such as danish blue, gorgonzola and roquefort. Soft blue cheeses are only safe to eat in pregnancy if they've been cooked.
It's advised pregnant women avoid some soft cheeses because they're less acidic than hard cheeses and contain more moisture, which means they can be an ideal environment for harmful bacteria, such as listeria, to grow in.
Although infection with listeria (listeriosis) is rare, it's important to take special precautions in pregnancy – even a mild form of the illness in a pregnant woman can lead to miscarriage, stillbirth or severe illness in a newborn baby."

Presumably shipped in, then transferred to road vehicles to get to the U.K.?
I have no idea. Scoots was asserting that it'd be mad to import chicken from such a faraway place as the US, and I was saying that a huge amount of the EU's (including the UK's) chicken already comes from Brasil and Thailand, i.e. faraway. This was the entirety of the point I was trying to make. EDIT: Apparently very poorly.
I was wrong to suggest that food standards in Brasil and Thailand are worse than the US or Europe, as has already been pointed out.
As it happens, we're no more interested in niches that suit your agenda either. And a threesome with krankie Sturgeon doesn't count as an agenda, you need to file that one under "very sick fantasy".
Them chickens are more well travelled than Quitlings. Why not leave out the fact this only makes up for less than 1% of all imported poultry.
We're not interested in niches to suit your agenda, whatever that is.
