据美国食品安全新闻网消息,近日美国俄亥俄州参议员布朗致函美国农业部,要求美国农业部派员到中国,对拟输美的禽肉进行例行检验。布朗认为,中国食品安全状况有待改善,让中国禽肉入境会增加美国民众的食品安全风险。
部分原文报道如下:
American consumers need USDA "on station" to inspect chicken processing as it occurs in China, and a "labeling gap" is putting U.S. food safety at risk, U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) suggests in a letter to Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack.
Brown also raised numerous questions with Vilsack about Chinese chicken processors being approved to process chicken raised in the U.S., Canada or Chile and then export the cooked chicken back here.
