I posted this yesterday-but it was buried in a thread and I received no answer...I realize NCBAers are a dying breed, but there must be at least one left that knows something about this:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Question to you NCBA folk-- Is it true that NCBA membership now supports not allowing the USDA inspected stamp on imported beef? That they now believe the country of slaughter inspection stamp should remain with the beef thru retail sale ?
That is what I've been hearing-only saw it once in print as a proposal a while back...
Still wouldn't cover the live imports that are slaughtered in the US- but it would be a start.....Take care of the "stuff" coming from the Mexican plants where they can get any official to turn their head for a few pesos- same inspectors that moonlite on the streetcorner selling their "seesters" for a buck....
