You have got to be kidding! At least TELL me that you have changed the date and let ME decide if I am willing to buy the product or not. <br /><br />Interesting that the tare weight is right on the label. Never saw that before. Makes the whole label seem kinda' wonkey! What it says is "We don't care if the chicken is bad or not but we will tell you how much the packaging weighs." Almost laughable!Peace Thymehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17361079101751470855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603107829473043654.post-67333871020467607682010-06-03T04:16:11.764-04:002010-06-03T04:16:11.764-04:00This is a story that continues to beggar belief.

But I think I may try to find out what the rules are here in the UK - food scares and scandals are just about an everyday occurrence here. <br /><br />I can remember a Director of Public Health remarking at yet another buffet lunch that the main cause of food poisoning was chicken.... especially kept warm under lights for a buffet lunch.rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00474723200653576051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603107829473043654.post-55900662202703593522010-06-02T20:30:19.491-04:002010-06-02T20:30:19.491-04:00I remember the Food Lion case: I believe it was re...I remember the Food Lion case: I believe it was remixing old ground beef into some new ground beef, at least that's my memory of it.<br /><br />Marie, I think it's good you push. Have you confronted the store?<br /><br />Instead of changing expiration dates, what they should do: reduce the price and explain on a separate label that this is untainted meat that has passed its somewhat arbitrary expiration date. Try to resell and if not, destroy after 2 or 3 days. Anyway, that seems better than lying. And if your gonna lie, fully remove the evidence.<br /><br />Ha, I'm watching Food inc tonight.Frankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02554893883207752597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603107829473043654.post-24899761426254212242010-06-02T17:36:51.781-04:002010-06-02T17:36:51.781-04:00Karen thanks for the link.

A little chilling that they were initially awarded damages.<br /><br />I was cheered when I first saw the organic chickens at the Key Food, as I'd been asking for them for some time. I bought organic milk, eggs and butter there, apparently 'safe' items.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13632520557553405790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603107829473043654.post-70138935527168827332010-06-02T17:32:10.747-04:002010-06-02T17:32:10.747-04:00You'll remember this little to-do down here in...You'll remember this little to-do down here in NC:<br /><br />http://www.nytimes.com/1999/10/21/us/appeals-court-rejects-damages-against-abc-in-food-lion-case.html<br /><br />And reading my local blogs, they still have a problem with cleanliness.<br /><br />I refuse to shop at Food Lion even though it is the closest (less than 1/2 to me). I'd rather spend my dollars at my local organic food store even though it is more expensive. My fear of salmonella, e. coli, etc. is greater than my need to save.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09268304194276808749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603107829473043654.post-47208836030980051492010-06-02T16:15:24.510-04:002010-06-02T16:15:24.510-04:00Let's hope that putting their business in the ...Let's hope that putting their business in the streets - the paper - will cause some better behavior.
