British food not good enough for Americans.. Burn it all FDA says....

[Peaches]

Many US restaurants won't donate food because they open themselves up to lawsuits if someone gets sick. We have a great legal system here.......

I was subjected to British food when I lived in Bemuda and I reached the same conclusion as the FDA......

Didn't spend much time up at that end of the island Most of my time off base was spent in the Primcess and the Sonesta Beach hotel and several clubs in town

Ate local at a couple of places in somerset, usually avoided the meat pie and the brains and the like...lolol....

The worst are the "class action suits" where the injured individual gets $50.

But the law firm gets $50m

Is this the British paper that is akin to "our" New York Post where they print everything, usually before seeing if it's real?If I'm mistaken, fine. Just want to know if this is a reliable source or that "yellow sheet".

Interesting point. What I find both fascinating and horrifying is that we are so used to the incredible insanity of the American government that we were all so quick to believe it.

A freeway or something had to stop dead in mid construction because it would have disturbed the habitat of...five flies. (OK, I'm a little foggy on the details, but I'm positive on the "five flies" part. Fuck the humans and what they need...we've got to protect these five damned flies. Something I read recently.)

Thanks for slipping in a little rational thought, Dravyk. We need more of that.

That is the sad part. Even if it's not true, it's something that wouldn't surprise us at all about our government. I honestly don't think "mad cow" meat would be part of NATO rations.

And to not allow food from Italy? What harm could good pasta bring?

All the Brits and former Brits reading this thread, and none have yet replied to the question about The Mirror ... Why is that?
