@bbradleymp The difference is that in the USA chlorine washing is used to disguise the consequences of poor hygiene in the production cycle and, regrettably does not kill off salmonella/listeria. Just makes it harder to test for. So really quite dangerous.

Salmonella: In the US there are 1.2 million cases every year, 23,000 hospitalisations and 450 deaths. In the EU as a whole (and bear in mind there are 150 million more EU citizens than Americans) there were 1,766 hospitalisations in 2016 and just ten deaths.
