WASHINGTON — Following an announcement by the USDA that meats processed in Chinese facilities will be allowed unmarked in American markets, U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio) is seeking additional answers and action from the secretary of agriculture.
“Given the well-documented shortcoming of the Chinese food safety system, we shouldn’t allow unmarked meat into our markets that is processed in Chinese facilities that are not subject to food safety inspections,” Brown said. “This action could endanger the health and safety of American consumers and potentially undermines confidence in our nation’s food safety standards.”
