But European countries would very much like to remain in control of their own markets, especially for agriculture. And they are right to do so: no one in the EU wants to eat the stuff that's sold in the US.
- rurban 10y agoA lot of US food is eaten in Europe and nobody has a problem with more or less low quality junk food. Also Europe has already the cheap low quality US movies and TV series. Only Korea is so far immune against that. The problem is only the poisonous US food and pesticides that are forbidden in Europe and the fundamental difference between the European precautionary_principle and the US proactionary principle.
- m_mueller 10y ago... so how does it help when suddenly the EU has to accept the same pesticide ridden stuff?
- tdkl 10y agoSuch food chains are well labeled and known for their origin though.
- thatfrenchguy 10y agoIt's pretty hard to label right, especially for things like animal feeding (which is already coming from countries outside the EU).
