Brexit

[Dinner]

Right now US chicken is blocked for sale in the entire EU so your assertion makes no sense.The fact is US chicken is safer in every way and causes far less food borne illness. It is safer, costs way less, and actually tastes better to boot. **** feces covered EU chicken.

EU eggs are **** and cost too much too.

[Uncle Sparky]

You are wrong, Dinner. US regulations are, overall, weak and often unenforced. I avoid most meat in the US, especially chicken.

[Dinner]

No, you are wrong. Treating chicken with chlorine actually does disinfect it better and results in less bacteria contamination without any health effects what so ever. Thus why the EU does it with vegetables. So why did the EU suddenly change its laws to ban chlorine treated chicken in 2008? Simple, protectionism and no other reason. It is a bureaucratic means to block fair and legal competition and that is their ONLY motivation. FACT.

It costs less due to being more efficient, it is just as healthy, and it tastes identical. The EU, as usual, is just unable to compete and is resorting to protectionism without even the slightest scientific justification. In fact, their chicken products are less safe, result in more illness, yet the EU forces it simply as a protectionist prevent free, fair, and open completion. I will happily cheer the day the EU protectionist pigs are drug out into the street and shot like the common man harming authoritarian pieces of **** that they are.

Nationalistic chest-beating over chicken and eggs

[Dinner]

Fact in response to his smear about “chlorinated chicken”.

[BeBMan]

Dauphin's post was about US food poisoning/illnesses/more cases, and he linked to an article comparing official US and UK stats for this assessment. This has nothing to do with them chicken not sold in the UK.

Since you care so much about facts, here's the relevant part, just for you:

Figures taken from the US Food and Drug Administration and the UK's Food Standards Agency show 14.7 per cent of the US population suffer from a food-borne illness each year, versus 1.5 per cent in the UK.

Let's face it, the EU is such a failed **** show that it would be almost impossible to do worse. With deregulation and new trade deals the UK is going to see a boom. It will take 5-10 years for everything to be put in place but Boris seems to be doing all the right things. His new infrastructure plan sounds great, I especially like the idea of the Scotland to Northern Ireland bridge, I can remember discussing such a possibility for such a bridge here at Apolyton many moons back.

You know , it's not that dinner is wrong and stupid (and racist etc etc). Most american soldiers are probably very dumb.
That's not what icks me. On the contrary it is entertaining like watching an agin vinyl stuck on the same loop.
What bothers me is that at one point in time I stood for a second and for a very brief moment contemplated wether he was right. Granded it was in the depth of the greek crisis something unprecedented since WW2, a huge 25% drop in GDP a vicious intense crisis.
And only under those circumstances I gave Dinner's oipinions the benefit of the doubt for axxproximately 2 seconds. That's how much they were worth
And still I will always blame myself for that,

[Bereta_Eder]

I also read the other comments.
Jesus. DId dinner just tried to claimt hat US food is better than european food?
The mind explodes of such nonsense.
Regulations protect the customer. American deregulation make millions of homeless which eat eachother without any regard for public gastronomical safety.

It is like a concentrated intense kind of stupid with dinner. He takes matters that europe is undoubtably superior and tries to say that the shipwreck that is US (or Kenhys or other countries) is better.

At least say something about the grand canyon, something where you can win.

AMerica has frankestein food full of cancer and everyone knows that,
Europe has regulations that proctect the customer and actually needs even more

ANd about the UK. Alas, the dealdy coronovirus of neoliberalism has long killed that nation. THutcher butchered it and then those that could actually do something good like blair put the nails in the coffin instead of trying to revive it.

UK didn;t just die. It had died long ago. I feel for the educated, thinking people of the UK but alas populism has won.

Now, with people like dinner as your only ally the sea surface will go furhter and further up while you sink deeper

[Bereta_Eder]

And of course the best and healthiest food inside Europe itself is greek

Which has absolutely nothing to do with the discussion about chicken and amounts to an attempt to change the subject.

[Dinner]

As for the retarded accusation of “racism”; I will point out that it was our Greek post who actually got permabanned for using racial slurs. I would also point out that I was one of several people who campaigned to reverse that perma ban so that he was only banned for a year or so instead of forever.

So he seems to be projecting his own faults on other people here.

[Dauphin]

Let me get this straight:

1: Fact, EU chicken causes food borne illness five times more often than American chicken
2: Counterfact: Figures taken from the US Food and Drug Administration and the UK's Food Standards Agency show 14.7 per cent of the US population suffer from a food-borne illness each year, versus 1.5 per cent in the UK.
3: Stop changing the subject!

This is true.
I give you a hard time but in a deep level I don't dislike you at all. On the contrary I feel some connection in some subjects. And yes, you are for the freedom of speech a unique and powerful american attribute that I like. Maybe focus on the EE UU strenghts.
And true that you lobbied for my re-habilitation. A very noble deed. It showed me my friends

Yes, because total food borne illness does not equal chicken safety and most of that happens after consumers buy it.

[Dauphin]

You claimed "EU chicken cause food borne illness" and now say "most of that happens after consumers buy it". You can't claim that EU chicken is worse than US chicken and then say that it's actually the consumers cooking habits, as it basically negates the comparison of health standards. Unless you are saying that Americans don't know jack about cooking food and constantly give themselves food poisoning at an alarming rate despite having allegedly safer food standards.

[Dauphin]

Can you provide any stats that show American chicken causes less illness than EU chicken? All I have seen is your assertion with no support.

I am open-minded, it's just that I have only ever seen data to the contrary.

THe UK has had a lot of problems in the past (BSE, Salmonella in eggs, etc), and events like that caused substantial improvements in the food safety standards.

[Bereta_Eder]

Listen, I like dinner in the fact that like me he is for freedom fo speech. But when it comes to chicken **** USA **** Britain fuch flemish belgium fascists
Greek is best
