I know you must be concerned, your compatriots being big sausage eaters and all that but you miss the overall point.
Someone in this segment of the topic brought up the point that chlorinated chicken of which millions of Americans consume on a daily basis, is unfit for human consumption with the inference that EU standards are higher and holier than thou.
For some balance I would argue that EU standards, enforced on the UK until now, also allow for food IMHO unfit for human consumption.
Enjoy your next EU sausage Slanty, don't look too closely at it, and try to forget you ever read this would be my friendly advice.
