Lots of American food is actually banned in the rest of the world, especially the EU.
Good thing the US has a great healthcare system.

I saw a thread recently with Americans discussing who washes their chicken in the sink before cooking it, which is a concept I'd literally never even heard of in Europe.
That's not a thing most Americans do, just an fyi.
It's not, but only because doing so causes even more problems, even though there's reason to do it
Maybe I'm out of the loop here, but can people safely eat raw chicken in Europe?
You have to cook chicken in the US. I kinda figured that was a global thing.

Chicken production is horrible everywhere, but in USA it is next level disgusting.
Besides the chlorine treatment, which they have to do because the production is unsanitary, they also ship the frozen chicken to China, where it's chopped up, only to be send back to USA, still frozen. Trump was angry with UK not wanting to import it.
It makes no sense that sending a frozen chemical shit chicken all over the world, should somehow be better or cheaper than simply raising a chicken in Europe and just chopping the head off.

And jalapeños as of yesterday. Taylor Farms again.
It's a conspiracy by Big Mayo to keep flavor out of food, I tell ya! They'll come for the sriracha next!
My wristwatch has a secret hot sauce dispenser
that's your radial artery and you really should leave it alone

Oh damn, the us fucked up even that?
It makes vampires nervous, so the Republicans won't have any of it.
it wont repel mitch mcconnel, becauses hes a different kind of undead, a lich.
Eggs and groceries were a symbol for the election of Trump
Now groceries are expensive and eggs are dangerous to eat
I will never forget volunteering with a magat just after the election and her being like 'just wait! Everything is going to get cheaper in a month or two!' A huge part of me would love to chat with her now. How you like $4-5 gas?

Didn't US voters choose Trump allegedly because of the egg prices?
Well, I guess they still got all the racism.

I heard a report on NPR that food inflation was stable because lettuce prices have plummeted.
:/
So, is this Trump technically fulfilling his campaign promise of lowering egg prices?
I heard about jalapenos, but not about garlic powder. Sure wish we had a government that wasn't full of total pieces of shit.
Can't complain about egg prices if you can't buy eggs.
First get your population sick with food made for cockroaches, then charge them thousands to heal themselves.
A perfect system, really.
We can’t eat eggs, lettuce, and garlic powder
Don’t forget salsa, guacamole, and jalapeños.
I’m eating a burrito bowl right now. It feels like I’m gambling with my life. But fuck it’s delicious.

The more news about RFK Jr. I see, the more convinced I am that the brain worm is not only alive and well but possibly in control of what this guy does. I know it sounds stupid, but if brain parasites could hold public office, it would look like this.

Add almost anything from Taylor Farms, that company that paid drumpf $1 million
They believe they are killing the weak, leaving young fit workers.

I suppose its technically a nationwide recall, but it seems like there are only a handful of States impacted at least.
Yeah, but I bet they are really cheap now. So... Good work America, I guess that's what you wanted?

But think of all the shareholder value that's been created!
Honestly I'd be scared to eat anything in or from the US.
