Strangely, this may be the one time when the science agrees with them.

European Commission. (2003, April). The evaluation of antimicrobial treatments for poultry carcasses.

European Commission. (2008, April). Environmental impact and effect on antimicrobial resistance of four substances used for the removal of microbial surface contamination of poultry carcasses

European Food Safety Authority. (2015). Risks for public health related to the presence of chlorate in food.

Yes, for tax purposes. It says nothing about the nutritional content.

The bread being considered cake thing isn't what you think it is. It was a matter of taxation, not nutrition.

Every chemical is potentially risky in sufficient amounts, even water.

It's not as much of a thing in the US today, but even the European Commission has found that it's not a problem unless you're eating 5% of your bodyweight in chlorinated chicken every day. It's mostly protectionism for European poultry farmers under the guise of safety.

I can think of one thing he could do that would get him lots of good press, but it's typically a TOS violation.
