Sounds like you haven't been to the States. Next time you are, you absolutely must make sure you visit the local supermarket and buy some chicken. Do let me know how you get on. And yes, at the dilutions we use you shouldn't be able to distinguish any taste but our friends across the pond are made of sterner stuff.So how is chlorinated chicken any different to other standards already applied to UK food?
Does the same job. Kills the bacteria.
Weak argument, but is trotted out continuously as though chlorination is inferior to irradiation.
Must try harder.
Irradiated food
Irradiation of food is a practice which eliminates bacteria that may lead to food poisoning. This page details the irradiation process and how it is not harmful to consumers.www.food.gov.uk
PS.
All UK water supplies are chlorinated.
In the UK, all public water supplies must be disinfected by law to destroy any bacteria which may be harmful to your health. ... We add chlorine at the final stage of water treatment in order to kill any harmful germs that may be present, and concentrations are monitored closely, 24 hours a day.
....and as for our own irradiation: very convenient in my book, you don't even need candles for that intimate dinner as the soft green glow not only illuminates the surroundings but you can easily distinguish soft tissue from bone as well - and I'm talking about your partner, not the food
