Tweaked Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 The Wash Post on the new proposed regulations for chicken processing, inspection, and safety currently being considered by the USDA. The short version: Increased line speeds. More chemicals. Fewer USDA inspectors. Yum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrXmus Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Yeah, it's gross. A few months ago I heard that the USDA was considering allowing Chinese chickens to enter the US food chain. Is that still in the works? I didn't realize, but they've been used in pet foods for years. Personally, I will not willingly eat a chicken from china.

There have been many pet food problems traced to those chickens from China. I would certainly hope that they are clearly labeled if they are going to used for human consumption.
