The food chain has become corrupted and adulterated

I'm afraid I am rather cynical about all the protestations of astonishment that the food chain has become corrupted and adulterated.

Fox News warned about "pink slime" back in March 2012:  http://afroml.blogspot.co.uk/2012/03/report-by-rick-folbaum-on-fox-news.html

The Environment Secretary Owen Paterson told us back in December 2012 that GM ingredients had entered the food chain and yet were not being listed on labels:  http://afroml.blogspot.co.uk/2012/12/highly-controversial-policy.html

The industrialisation of food production has been both mad and cruel.

We need to see heavy prison sentences both for fraud and negligence where labelling is concerned.

We also need to have legal restrictions on the length of the food supply chains:  http://afroml.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/farm-shops.html
