It was my poor attempt at a joke, I did actually know it was a Bible reference.
I don’t know if you were quoting it seriously or not, but once people start quoting Bible passages at me, I tend to lose interest fast, followed by a quick retreat away from those who quoted.
Not really into superstitious and supernatural fantasy stories tbh. :

Chlorinated chilli chicken wraps
You might be on to summat there:
Clearly chlorinated chicken is a good way to get bleach into our systems, so preventing us from getting COVID 19, so will be in high demand. And the chilli will disguise the horrible swimming pool taste of it.
.

Oh, except COVID 19 doesnt exist, and chlorine isnt used to destroy chicken faeces. And chilli is foreign.
.
.
But a good idea!

Two things…
If the bleedin’ profiteering supermarkets stopped people from buying 100 packs of Andrex quilted in the first place, there wouldn’t be any shortages. Instead, they sell out thereby making a larger than normal profit and then, go on national TV to say we have to shop sensibly. ■■■■■■■ price gouging hypocrites!
Surely the Americans have already been eating chlorinated chicken right? They’re not dropping like flies as far as I’m aware.
The issue isn’t the chlorine treatment - its not harmful, its why its needed in the first place. We abide by certain standards over here which mean that we don’t need to bathe chicken in bleach as all the bits to get the chicken from farm to fork are of a much higher standard while the concern for chlorinated chicken is that those standards can be undercut because the production process doesn’t need to be as regulated as they’ll just wash it all off at the end. This means poorer conditions for chickens, poorer conditions in slaughterhouses, and an ability to undercut domestic chicken farmers.

toonsy has it right
Washing chicken in chlorine, and rinsing well wont do us much harm. True. But it is a sort of short hand for the poor hygiene standards used in US abattoirs, and lower animal welfare standards. Chlorine isnt used in EU (and hence here) meat production because we dont get five H one T splattered over the meat in the first place, so we dont need to wash it off. There are issues with overcrowding of chickens, hormone and antibiotic use etc and “chlorine washing” is a (not very) convenient way of abbreviating it all.
There are figures saying the US has ten times the food poisoning of the UK, but they aren`t comparable measuring methodologies:
fullfact.org/health/food-poisoning-US-UK/
Ed.
And lower welfare standards, more densely packed animals, etc makes for cheaper production. Our farmers would need to drop their standards to compete in case of a US deal. In spite of making the right noises the present Gov has evaded chances to set thecurrent standards in law.
Lol imagine defending US food
Might aswell eat squirrels
Vote Tory for a bright future

Maybe this article is as good as any describing the issues:

“Which?” is for consumers, and doesn`t have political bias.

Even Tory papers and supporters arent happy about the current Govs stance.
Apologies about the Bible stuff.
Last time, people bought non perishable stuff to hoard: tins, dry pasta, flour, prunes etc
This time it might be perishable stuff as it is so dependant on HGV transport from warmer climes e.g. avocado from the Middle East. Is the transport industry vulnerable?

Yes, but can you imagine a Christmas dinner without brussel sprouts?

Yes, I can. No problem at all.
And anyway brussels sprouts are not very perishable.
Examples have been dug up in Viking burial mounds, and they still needed two hours boiling, then frying with bacon bits, to make them remotely edible.

I’ve delivered many containers loaded with food, including refrigerated containers, that have come from far further than Europe. So, it isn’t beyond the realms of possibility that as ‘mega-jams’ bring truck borne food to a halt, or incurs unacceptable delays, food could be imported from elsewhere.
As one door closes, Capitalists generally find a way to open another.
If trade with the EU collapses, it will increase elsewhere. Image Kent with no ferry traffic. The price of Kent properties would increase exponentially. Nobody will mourn the absence of ferry traffic. I wonder what annual ferry tonnage is involved in the carrying of the thousands upon thousands of tractor units. Doubtlessly, millions of tons - and for what?
Trailers can be shipped unaccompanied. Think about that. No LHD trucks in Britain and no RHD trucks in Europe. Road safety is an assured winner. And all imports into Britain are then delivered by British trucks, driven by British drivers. Everyone is a winner.
