Some products where withdrawn from the shelves of supermarkets that contained tainted eggs. The eggs where imported from German farms and were found to contain dioxin, which can cause miscarriages and cancer. The eggs where contaminated after oil which was intended for bio-fuel became mixed up with oil destined for chicken food. However, most of the products had already been sold, but according to the Food Standards Agency they posed “no food safety risk”. One theory is that the only reason the egg powder made out of these eggs was considered safe was simply because they knowingly mixed it with tons of untainted egg powder. Many British people are mad because the warning came so late and are suggesting not importing food any more.
The suggestion of not importing food cannot be taken seriously. It is also knows that many countries do not want to import eggs from Britain because it contains a higher quantity of salmonella than the legal limit. But in any case, I think this misfortune has to wakeup people and make them aware of the waste that is put in our food and protest against it. For example, I saw a TV program on chickens’ breasts and on how they are actually being filled with water to sell for a cheaper price. To top that, sometimes they use protein made out of cow or even pig bones to make the chicken meat suck in even more water. All of this sickens me and makes me want to isolate myself from this treacherous society.
