This today in The Guardian is worrying:
The practice of smuggling sick cows into the meat chain is feared to be more widespread in Poland than previously believed, according to the investigative reporter who captured footage of ill cows being dragged to slaughter with a winch.
After Patryk Szczepaniak’s undercover footage aired, the EU’s rapid alert system for food and feed was triggered, and it has since been confirmed that meat from this particular abattoir was exported to 12 other EU countries (not including the UK).
Glad to read the U.K. wasn’t a direct beneficiary but it puts the concerns about chlorinated chicken from the USA in the shade.
Some evil people will do any amount of harm to make money it seems. Worrying.
