Pork panic!! I have a roast for tonight's meal - is it safe to eat?!


Question: Pork panic!! I have a roast for tonight's meal - is it safe to eat!?
In light of the Irish scare - mine says Great Britain as the source!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Zero risk - concern is only Irish pork and its a theoretical risk since dioxin does not affect humans in same manner!. But your real issue - its only pork products from and labeled ireland!. "The FSA in Ireland today said there was no significant risk to consumers and said added that it was awaiting confirmation as to whether contaminated pork products had been distributed to the UK"!. That's the print from the food advisory - so unless you believe your pork was brought in and some evil trolls relabeled it (just a joke) - no risk!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You should be fine!. The Food and Trading standards office say that there is not a great deal of risk at the moment!. Hopefully that is okay!. Ireland, as someone else has stated, is not Great Britain, that covers Scotland, England and Wales!.

also, you would have to eat a lot of it for it to be a problem over a long period of time!. Best buy British and Organic if you can!.

Hope this has put your mind at rest!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Great Britain is not Southern Ireland which is where the problem is,so your pork is safe to eat!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I think it is only Irish Republic pork, enjoy!Www@FoodAQ@Com

If its from GB then it should be fine, if it had said produced in Ireland I would take it straight back to the shop!Www@FoodAQ@Com

If it says Great Britain, it hasn't come from Ireland!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I think it is good to eat pork for me!. LOL!Www@FoodAQ@Com
