About Dispatches Season 2019, Episode 13 : The Truth About Chlorinated Chicken
As President Trump touches down in the UK, a post-Brexit trade deal is top of the agenda. And one of the most controversial issues is whether we will have to accept chemically washed American chicken as part of a deal. It's been banned in the EU for more than 20 years because of concerns that it masks poor hygiene practices in other parts of the supply chain, but now that we are leaving the EU, should we be worried? Dispatches goes undercover in a major US poultry processing plant to investigate. Reporter Kate Quilton meets whistle-blowers and industry insiders who claim that the Trump administration's close relationship with the industry may mean that the worst is yet to come.
