    I watched this programme to find out what all the fuss about chlorinated chicken was. But instead of focusing on the actual chlorinating process it seemed more concerned with the food hygiene standards the company employed. This goes on all over the world and the UK is certainly no stranger to the practises seen in the programme.

    Pardon me going off-topic here, but Jeremy Clarkson claims that a chicken is really just a vegetable with a head.

    Sorry guys, it should not have amused me, but it did.

    Carry on, as you were.

    Chlorinated chicken shows just how important maintaining EU standards are.

    It is not the lowering of standards per se. The US substitutes safety rules at all stages for just a big one at the end. More dangerous? Yes. But only slightly.

    The danger is this. The minute we accept chlorinated chicken, our own chicken producers, and all associated byproducts, are in all sorts of bother. Because unless they can categorically prove no chlorinated chicken is in any way part of their process, our producers cannot sell any chicken-related products anywhere in the EU, or any of the countries that are in the Customs Union.
