USA Chicken / Beef

I came across this article about Russia's ban on importing chicken from America.

Another article - interesting that Canada does not pursue this practice.

Just a note to anyone who might be concerned, the chicken used in Kumpi products are not subjected to the injections of chlorine or any other additives. The chicken IS screened for salmonella, e-coli and other pathogens before it is considered for use in the food and the same screening is done after the product has been made.

Found this about beef:

Gee, there are days with all the crazy recalls that I feel my pets food is safer than what I eat!!!
