- Horse-meat mislabeled as beef. Honey diluted with cheap sugar syrups. Counterfeit extra-virgin olive oil. Food crime has become a multi-billion dollar industry, impacting everything from the most affordable to the most expensive ingredients. Approximately 10% of our consumed food is believed to be adulterated. "What we know for sure is that food fraud is growing exponentially and it’s more and more worrying," states one consumer advocate.
Criminal syndicates have infiltrated the global food supply chain, eroding consumer trust in labels and the contents of their plates. In Italy, the mafia controls entire sectors of the food industry, while worldwide, well-organized criminal networks collaborate to exploit intricate supply chains. Scams vary from intentionally mislabeling inferior products as premium items to substituting one foodstuff for something entirely different. The profits are staggering. But what risks does this pose to consumers? How can we detect food fraud? And what measures can be taken to halt it?
In this investigation, we shadow the food fraud brigades, shedding light on the limited knowledge we have about what we're consuming. From the olive groves of Italy to the fish markets of France and the abattoirs of Poland, this film takes you on a culinary journey of a distinct kind. It's a global exploration into the realm of counterfeit food, revealing the hidden complexities of this industry. - Розваги
If it's THIS bad in Europe, I cringe to think how it's got to be at least 1,000 times worse here in the US.
Yes US has way less less standards
Low quality is legal here
the USDA still operates under old laws from 1906
A million times worse in the US my man. FDA does not care
Yep. I'm afraid it has for sure.😮
You don’t know what you’re talking about
I have worked in the food industry.
I have got such powerful feelings about this, a simple comment just won't make-it. Just this, - you absolutely would never BELIEVE the amount of FRAUD that surrounds-you - it IS absolutely everywhere.
Capitalism rewards dodgy people. It is not just food and it is everywhere and everything. Most of us are just a wallet to these narcissists
I believe it, it starts at the top with Buyden.😊🇺🇸✌🏻🍻
Yeah no way those fine conservatives and there never ending quest to fill those already fat wallets fatter faster could ever resort to supporting things like this. They're all great Americans. Take Chump for example. Makes his ties in China. Sells BS tickets to Chump University. Stiffs those who have worked for him. Finds ways to inflate holdings to scam. And even dodges a draft that a lot of really good men paid the ultimate price because they didn't have a wealthy relative. Pay no mind that something like 70 percent or more of all financial gains have been funneled to the 1 percent. And those fine Conservatives STILL give tax credits to them. Even though they did quite well when the corporate tax rates were far more than they are now. And lest we forget the last few years how they costs of everything I can think of has sky rocketed and still rise and rise. (even though the claims they made that caused it have subsided) and record corporate profits are reported year after year. And even worse is the fact that the middle class and the American Dream itself vanishes for the masses more and more every year. And hey, don't get me wrong. There is not one politician I can say I like. I fine them all to be an unsavory lot who lie and lie to support an agenda that's been around for quite awhile if you look for it. Nothing but a gang of self serving self enriching bunghwholes who support that agenda that, let's face it, is not in our best interest.@@buzz5969
@@buzz5969like this just started? Lol
How utterly depressing.
Those products have to be properly labeled: "ground meat 50% horse", "beef with 20% mad cow", "rapeseed oil (olive-oil-flavored)", "old raw tuna with nitrates as preservative". Then sell them.
Good idea ...🤔...😂...
Then you going to buy it if they put those labels
@@michelerorabaugh8134
Funny how labeling makes it legit all of a sudden!! F**k!
HELL YEAH 👍
Nothing wrong with horse meat, even rat meat is probably better than beef but it has to be labelled properly and let customer decide.
pepsico,nestle,mc donalds,kfc,dominos,unilever,these are the biggest food mafia on this planet.😡
The entire world is full of it, not just the food industry. There isn't one segment of any society, around the world, that isn't out to con someone else out of something.
Thats why you need to select a farmer and buy meat from him, only
Yes its true
💯
Meanwhile in America, where many ingredients are banned elsewhere, we still use them. such as sucralose and HFCS. I'd imagine the FDA would look the other way so long as there was money to be made.
Sucralose yum yum
Not to mention many industries get to appoint their own "quality assurance" and they just give themselves flying colours every time. This is why Boeing sucks shit.
Absolutely my dear😂 It's all about the Benjamin's 😊😮😊
US Government Definitely doesn't give a flip. It's probably bigger in USA than any other place in the world 🌎
It's on the label at least though.
The fact that we get free documentaries on UA-cam by Best Documentary is truly a gift; keeping the education and knowledge alive 👏👏👏
It's free for a reason
@@Leo-gt1bxwhy?
...and that dosn't make you wonder!? 🤦
The director and producers have their own agendas (money, fame, influence, selling fear, sells products that are the "good" alternative, etc.)
I am not saying that everything in the video is a lie, but it is like that with a lot of "documentaries". They know where to find you/us and target the marketing to us and spark the fire - if its the truth or not! That is very easy nowadays, because you address to specific people that are open to that belief.
One thing is for sure - this video wasn't made because the director/producers were nice guys that wanted to inform you for the greater good!! 🤦😆

MAGA ..... Make America Great Again - It's all about money and jobs.
@@user-oe1mb9hu9i The united statians give a lot of importance to capitalism. They mention often how they don’t like communism and socialism. It seems to be mostly the republicans that lean that way. The republicans want a small government, meaning that they want less regulations, they want to convert the water purification plant, energy production, jails, police department into private businesses.
The republicans are for freedom. Do what you want.
So, businesses would be allowed to discriminate for religious reasons. Again, this is about freedom according to them. The word freedom appears often when their politicians talk or when I listen to sovereign citizens.
@@louistournas120 Sorry. I didn't read your comment. WTF does politics have to do with this ? They are talking about cheating and greed, not political parties.
Although politics thrive on lies, cheating and greed also.
@@user-oe1mb9hu9i Politics plays a role in this. Like I said, the republicans of the USA talk often about having a small government, privatizing almost anything, deregulate everything, lots of freedom.
It leads to a world with no control.

I suggest you go tell your local politicians now on how to rule the world. LOL.
Cheers mate.
I worked in the meat industry in a full throughput [slaughtered, butchered & packaged] meat plant in Wales for 4 1/2yrs. It dealt solely with lamb.
Traceability is a joke. If insufficient lamb from a particular source was available to fulfil an
orders, fraudulent paperwork was created, & ear tags substituted to match the paperwork. For example, if insufficient Scottish or Welsh lamb was available, English or Southern Irish lamb would be substituted.
It was common for bogof [buy one get one free] & similar offers to be over produced. These offers are usually available for a single week, & the order sizes are frequently larger than the plant can produce on a daily basis. The solution is to begin producing the offer products during the previous week, using extended sell by dates - 10 or 11 days instead of 8. At the end of the week, any offer packages remaining, are repackaged with an 8 day shelf life.
Vacuum packed meat is packaged & sold all year round, as fresh. Sometimes, out of date vacuum packed meat is used & packaged as fresh.
Meat which has been dropped on the floor is always picked up, brushed off & packaged for sale.
Meat has to be kept below a certain temperature during all production processes. Frequently, this is ignored, & meat which is even 4 or 5 degrees above the maximum allowed, is packaged for sale - & the paperwork completed using fraudulent figures.
'Packaged in a protective atmosphere' is a laugh. An emergency exit door was required to be fitted in the packaging department. The company owner would not pay the higher cost of the work being carried out outside production hours, so it was done during production. A hole was made using an angle grinder, & producing clouds of fine dust during production.
There are many more examples of meat abuse during production, but it would take too long to list them all.
Thank you for the insight. I live close to M25 and Heathrow Airport. Lamb is my number one choice when I eat meat. You be made ask myself some serious questions. I wonder in this case where can I get a trusted supplier of lamb meat? Thanks.
Big food lost me and my entire family years ago. Sugar, seed oils, High processed carbs. We now buy our food locally and grow most of it ourselves.
Be aware of potential fraud, even when you are having your meats raised and then taken to the slaughterhouse. We had two hogs processed and were given the meat from other unknown animals, while our meat was most likely sold in their shop because it was of such high quality. Our grower was furious. We never went back there but felt helpless to do anything about what happened.
How did you find this out?
💚🌱💚🌱It's nice having a whole foods plant-based diet, never have to worry about this & never have to be concerned if the animal I love is on my plate vs the animal I put less value on even though their subjective experience is no different than one another. 💚🌱💚🌱
@@StarWonder
Fraud is criminal. Don’t be so certain that it doe not happen with plant foods too. These groups only seek profits and not a scintilla about the health of end customers.
@@StarWondernice for you maybe. Horrible for others health. This person seems well meaning and doesn’t need your preaching.
I had the same thing happen I had a friend that worked at the slaughterhouse and said my beef was never processed that day, my friend what's up prepared to go to the boss with me and was given another animal
i like how they don't villanize one country and they show how different people fight for a change in all their countries 👍 there are good people everywhere, don't give up! 🙏💪
Thanks 🥹
true!
@@kcnicky2242 Fortunately, the 1000's of people who investigate, inspect and regulate all the factories, warehouses and shops you get your food from everyday don't agree with you.
I agree and im so happy you used 'their' and 'there' correctly.
@@owefay1 i believe it is a bit easier due to the fact that english is not my mother tongue (hence paying attention to how i express myself) 🤷♀️🙂 thanks for noticing such a fine detail, didn't expect that 🌈
I actually drive to the farm that raises, slaughters and packages my grass-fed, organic beef. Raw milk and cheese, too.
Good for you!

I hear they are trying to criminalize that though?

@@jill-of-all-tradesif you control the food you control the people, ask yourself why bill Gates is buying farm land in the USA, Europe is having a farming crisis and we are killing all the cows in the uk?
i've always known about this, that our meat isn't always the meat its labeled as BUT my biggest "fear" or at the very least a nagging question in the back of my mind is: *have i ever unintentionally ate **_human??_*
lol! yes, there is a chance you have eaten human flesh.and I bet that if you did, you didnt even notice.
Soylent Green, the movie - watch it!
This makes it hard to be loyal to certain religions that have specific eating restrictions.
+1 Soylent Green.
"SOLENT GREEN IS PEOPLE"
as indonesians i feel ashamed that our food producers and our official food inspector doesn't do their jobs (most of them just sitting around in their comfy office) and let these food atrocities going on for years, i personally as indonesian food consumer feel that these producers is poisoned their own custumers for years for profit
Why feel shame? Did you not watch the documentary? EVERYWHERE is impacted. Humans are greedy and when they can get away with lying and selling for higher profits with low/little punishment, they will keep doing it. There is no single ethnic/country in the world that doesn't do this.
Hahah dude look for china it even more 1 million time much worse than europe or Indonesia 😂. Meanwhile their higher ranking official had exclusive farm
As a Canadian, I'm appalled at our involvement in this fake meat industry! I'm all for making an extra buck to secure a retirement nest egg. But I totally do not condone the act when you make your "nest egg" by conning your customers into believing your product is something and it's really something else, altogether. *Especially,* when it comes to food products that *we* are tricked into purchasing!!
I know what you mean, however, you forgot to say "don't".
@@jed-henrywitkowski6470 ooh shit!? Thanks, I fixed
Not sure Canada had anything to do with fraud, Horse meat is quite common, it's when you pretend it's beef that is the problem.....so it's on those over in Europe that committed the fraud.
why do you think that CANADA is better??? they are all in this shit together money talks!!
@@marianaistarescu5614 I didn't say Canada *was better* in any way!? I said, as a Canadian, that I was horrified at Canada's involvement in this industry. Is English your second language? Or, do you not know what appalled means??
two cannibals are eating a clown, one asks the other "does this taste funny to you? "😅😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Shocking ! A world full of greed.
How is that shocking, some humans are greedy and cut corners to save themselves money. Id say its messed up but I don't buy any meat from the stores I source my food directly from the wilderness.
I hear horse meat is pretty tasty😂
Honestly I'd rather eat wild Moose, Caribou, Blk bear, Dall Sheep, Wildcaught salmon. Atleast I know I'm the one processing and putting them away. Berries, greens, and I have a large garden, hardwork is sooo satisfying.😁
The foodmakers get ripped off in turn by plumbers or at the car repair shop. And the plumbers probably get ripped off too by electricians or in the computer repair shop. It's not a nice world we live in: it becomes even more sad if you see what these fraudsters afterward do with all the money they grabbed along the way. Some just throw it away in strip joints or in Las Vegas, other pay ridiculous high prices for a Ferrari (and even more money to keep it running) or for an ugly painting of sunflowers. Or 400 pairs of shoes like Imelda Marcos. Or a yacht, preferably one that is two inches bigger than that of Elon Musk, otherwise they feel like a loser. It's all so ridiculous and childish, but well, that's (wo)mankind;
@@b01tact10n. Good grief. You’re a human slaughterhouse yourself aren’t you.
Not really so shocking to me.
As predicted in the Bible..
Restaurants meat are not guaranteed, grocery products are not guaranteed, supplements industry are not guaranteed
Totally agree esp supplements industry 💯
Only the tip of an iceberg . Easy $ , low risk ,even lower penalties ......hell yeah.
THIS DOCUMENTRY DOES NOT NAME 1 COMPANY WHO IS PRODUCING BAD EVOO, BUT THEY SAID 7 OUT OF 10 WERE BAD
And mostly meat products
You probably didn't hear the names because you were YELLING!
Ya, but a good point!
The idea is to make you aware so you make informed decisions.
Bad companies often change names, and what’s to say a good producer can’t turn bad? It’s the whole point of constantly doing quality control.
So what’s the point of naming names ?
It might as well be a 52 minute ad by the worst EVOO producer, and you’d be happy cause they said theirs was one of the good ones 😂
They couldn’t name anyone because they leave themselves open to being sued. The governments and food standards agencies took money to turn away and allow it to happen for years and years.
Sometimes, I feel disgusted at the processed food from the supermarket I end up eating. The massive and industralised and automated production of food feels somewhat uncanny and disgusting. There's just something so vile in looking at footage of clumps of mince strings being extruded and sent down the conveyor belt.
Yet you eat it
I would be more disgusted when a Michelin restaurant is preparing me food with lubricant oil that looks AND TASTES LIKE OLIVE OIL instead of real extra virgin oil
Imagine if of trffcked children and/or humans, as well as the animals? What is the difference, except for the propoganda that normalizes over others?
Pure olive oil probobally the best but animal fat is the one@@UberFoX
We gave rise to this sort of industry. We allowed ourselves to populate as much as we have and that created a demand for much much more food. it is only natural that mass production methods would be invented to address the matter. and here we are.
The big government doesn't necessarily solve problems like this, only when the public gives a damn about their well-being. Unfortunately, most of us want the food source to be safe and honest, yet not want to put emphasis to guarantee its quality. I'm guessing the so-called organic food in the USA falls in this category .
'organic' food isn't.
Horsemeat is not poison you know...?
The dishonesty in the world makes me sick. Everyone, from the top to the average citizen has their angles and schemes to one degree or another. I am so cynical and distrustful or everyone and everything, it's paralyzing.
especially the government and woman!
The planet is controlled by evil!!!
Downer cows being treated like this is the most disgraceful thing in the whole world. The poor things produce milk for years, the least the owners can do is to humanely dispatch them when the time comes. I raised livestock for years and now that I don't I only eat fish, and veg that I grow, with a bit of elk and venison. What the beef is fed in the midwest US feedlots would horrify you.
Well said
ya, that why I don't mind eating horse meat, they surely have a better diet
Vegan for the win
@@moestietabarnak why? unfounded assumption..
The Greek are buying olives from the Turks and produce olive oil from Greece. The Italians are buying tomatoes from China to produce canned tomatoes and tomato paste.
I have seen many documentarys on food fraud, but did not realize how widespread this phenomenon was who was all involved. Thank you for this very informative documentary. I am vegan, but now wonder what vegetables and fruit can be tampered with.🤔🤔
None, it's all gmo.
Look at the labels "bioengineered" ingredients. & Being vegan doesn't help the planet because humans are the problem on the planet. All it takes is a polluted water supply for fruits and vegetables look at the recalls on products over various diseases. Maybe cross contamination. Even the FDA is requiring individuals that grow foods to register what they're growing. Big Corp doesn't like individuals not eating their over sprayed veggies and fruits bathed in pesticides and herbicides
olive oil is vegan so you could be eating rapeseed oil with chlorophyll added for color.
Realise food is also used as fertiliser for soil... Typically farmers/self growers utilise food waste/cow dunk/horse manure etc etc to fertilise their soil... Therefore if you sat veg you can expect anything in the soil which the vegetables grow on including urine feces dead rats bodies anything?
Ugh, the older I get the more cynical I get about all big business but big supermarkets and food manufacturers (manufacturing food?? Surely food should be grown?) especially. I’m v v poor but food is not a place I save money on- I’m putting it INSIDE my body. So I go to supermarkets as few times as possible and find places where the chain/distance between food grown and food sold is absolutely as short as possible. You just have to buy less and waste a LOT less. Apparently about a third of food we buy us chucked out as waste. Get rid of the waste and you can pay more for what you eat
Thank God we never eat out and all our food is bought locally and cooked from fresh. I have suspected these vile practises for a long time and we eat nothing that I have not cooked and sourced myself.
I do too.
I have a huge veggy garden, I buy milk at my local farmer and soon I will buy flower from the local miller. next year Iĺl have my own chickens(for eggs)
I still buy meat, sugar, flower, spices, cooking oil, butter or something as simple as coca cola....we just cant control everything we buy.
This is why I pray before every meal.
No use sorry 😮

I'm trying to eat while watching this. Big mistake. 🤢
Big mistake eating or watching ? 😮
“It’s quite unappetizing.” Quite the understatement! 😮
Buy ONLY local products, direct or as direct to the farmer as possible
Good idea, also got to find a good small scale farm you trust, which shouldn't be too hard in most places. The issue is with the big factory farms.
An old saying goes like this....Don't eat what you can't see.
Basically, this is referred to things like hot dogs, burgers, lasagna, cannelloni, kebabs and such products. Avoid frozen prepared food as much as you can or at all costs.
Kebabs are awesome when done right (obviously)
The onions + peppers with beef is 👌
I remember being curious about those microwave meal, it was a steak, mashed potato and vegies, i gaged after chewing on the "steak".
Scam Italy buys oils from other countries and then sells it under their origin of country. Thats messed up! it should be on the label!
In America they used to call it "Fast Food" because of its Order-Receiving Ratio.
Now you can Call it "FastFood" as how quickly it is preserved🃏
Could be 'fast food' because it was once a racehorse

If possible try making a video like this in India. We would love to avoid the deadly food on our shelves.
Send product samples you consume often to the nearest lab. It wont cost much. Even better just eat organic and unprocessed food. Consider processed food as poison
Humans are being fed other humans. They just dont know it yet.

Well done and thank you to all involved in stopping this.
This is the reason I only buy food from my own country, not packed in my country but actually produced and packaged in my own country. If it comes from another country then it stays on the supermarket shelf, it is not difficult to check where a product comes from you just have to open your eyes and use your brain, if it costs a bit more then so be it.
@@angelabarrineau3404 No common sense shop at Aldi or other supermarkets that get their supplies from producers in my country, don't use big multinational stores too expensive.
Is that a guarantee of no food fraud?
Same not too long ago I got chicken skewers from Iceland and read the packaging and it said chicken from china I was like why on earth would they get chicken from china but it all makes sense now
Luckily in America you can buy local, from local farmers, if you know how to cook. Most people choose convenience over hard labor in the kitchen, so allot of Americans still eat bad things because they're lazy or busy. I admit that not all the time can I cook a meal and end up eating processed foods but I do know how to cook the right way and could survive a disaster because of my skills but most people in America have left the old ways behind and even though good pure food is in abundance they don't choose it. America is upside down in every way right now and it's very sad.
It seems to me it would be simple for someone to make a simple consumer testing device. Nothing fancy, just something a consumer could use to test once they get the product home. We need more whistleblowers !!!
Using our current technology, it would be easy to test but for only one different protein.
So what would you do once you detected fraud? Are you going to report it? Who are going to believe you with one complaint, how are you going to cause an investigation?
How many people are willing to test it like you do?
Without massive amount of report and complaints how can the fraud stop?
It is not easy to analyze food, man. Food is made of so many components. You need a whole laboratory to test even a TYPE of food e.g. an apple. Let alone a whole array of foods.
Eat whole foods not that processed junk, and if you don’t like buying from the store, raise your own. We’re going to have to go back to that, like trading and bartering to eat healthy.
@@LPink-uk7ix With an attidude like that, it would make sense to never report anything unless 1 million people already have, which means no one will ever report anything. It's as if you are saying to only ever raise a concern when you have the opportunity to hop onto the bandwagon; That gets you absolutely nowhere...
This is outrageous!
This is just the tip of the iceberg, its alot worse.

I appreciate your sentiment bc Im 1000% against eating a horse.
Years ago an old black guy told me he was in the US Coast Guard during WWII. He said they feed them horse meat while he was in the coast guard.
They killed off all the Cavalry horses to make boots and stuff and fed the rest to the men. Or canned them and made them into C rations
sounds about right
I saw a documentary with Chinese can tomatoes. From china and relabeled as a italian brand. A thing to do is buy local fresh produce not processed. No more olive oil no more tuna.
Italy is well known for a lot food fraud, but not only food. Same goes for high priced leather goods, which are made from Chinese in Italy forced to work out of the legal work system. I avoid 'Made in Italy' in general.
Thank you for a very informative, well-written and engrossing exposé!
They are adding bioengineered ingredients in my favorite foods I have been eating for 12 years. I can no longer buy these items! Grocery companies clearly want to go broke!
They won’t
I’m not so concerned about eating horse meat, I have eaten it in France in a restaurant. But if it’s not approved as safe for human consumption, that’s not acceptable.
Yuk but then who knows what's in food anymore, best to grow your own if you can.

It's the lie i'm concerned about. Horse meat is great but shouldn't be labeled as ordinary beef.
And obviously the health and condition of the flesh.

Romans 3:12(Living Bible)
Every one has turned away; all have gone wrong. No one anywhere has kept on doing what is right; not one.
One thing for sure, as more of us turn away from God, our once Christian based nations that were more heavily populated with morals from our faith, are walking away from faith, Jesus and the Bible. It will always lead us to debauchery, depravity, immorality, greed and deception.
Now I'm not saying that 25-50-100 years ago we did not have corruption including in food production. As long as some people are caught up in human vagaries we will have issues like in this video.
But when we were still solid majority in faith, we better self governed. We feared God's judgment on us. But as we are deceived more away from God, we easily fall victim to human failings and immorality.
Look around you in life and ask,are we more lost, immoral, wicked, selfish, greedy, ungodly today than our society was 20-30-40-50+ years ago?
I had read somewhere that more Italian Olive Oil is sold in the USA than is produced by Italy.

@@davidb2206 oh 👍, way better than sugar canea
You can get sugar from sugar beet ^_^
What an eye opener! We all have to take into consideration that every food product is potentially contaminated or not 100% pure! You’d have to live on a farm with true free range livestock & grow your own vegetables & such with no agricultural chemicals or feed to be 100% sure! 52:11
I find it ridiculous that Tesco didn’t test these products themselves 😡😡👍
Ignorance is bliss 😢
I can say that there is NO such thing as horse meat in the US. The first time someone told me they eat horse, I can't say how stunned I was. I first thought it was a joke. Having said that I feel v certain that food fraud is much worse in the US
I've eaten it in a little restaurant on the reservation in South Dakota when I was visiting family there. It was perfectly labeled on the menu.
How would you know what's in frozen foods etc?
Same way Chinese eat dog cat rat bat
Horsemeat an incredible finding? Maybe 15 years ago Food Safety in Europe did a test in the frozen food meats and 85% was found to be Horsemeat. France was famous for Horse Butcheries. Every Chinese Restaurant/Take out in the city I live in, was closed for serving Cat. They reopened and the amazement is that people still go there!
Especially if you were starving, you'd eat something not knowing what it was and ask for seconds. We've all eaten something that we don't know what it was - like this Horsemeat find. I bet nobody complained it tasted funny😅
so you don't care some back street criminals choose what cheap crap or infected corpse they put in your food and charge you full price? 😆sucker! And they never said nobody eats Horse-meat - people also eat dogs, cat, rat, snails, grubs - or that the scandal JUST happened recently, it was clearly about the entire on-going issue. "Especially if you were starving" - in that case, let's include human corpses from any local funeral home or hospital, starving people have eaten those with no complaints. 😅
I'd imagine horse and dog meat is as good or better..
But they are arguably the most loyal friends/servants to mankind..
The real problem Is the lack of government oversight..
Much more concerned about what the animals eats and how humanely they are treated..
Also the fake filler is very disturbing
For the chinese cat meat is savory.
@@rrpearsall yep!
Unless you're smart enough to leave the meat industry for what it is altogether, as goes for seafood, while tuna for instance is already one of the ocean 's most endangered species, with or without additives
It's always a grateful experience watching videos about this; I appreciate growing up in a village where we cultivated our own food.
I started noticing fake food surrounding us 2 years ago, so I slowly throw out &cleaning my kitchen, paying more attention when buying goods, gradually I deleted 70%junk food in my househould. my point is- it starts from everyone～when we're concerned on our own community and environment. Love 🌎
This is why I buy local, grow my own fruits and veg, and always cook from scratch
great what time is dinner?
In the US it's legal to import meat from Africa and just because it's cut up in America they can label it grass fed American beef.
If you knew what American beef was fed you would never touch it ever again....
@@Chahlie tell Mr know it all. What is fed to them. For me when I raise one for slaughter and all the farmers I know let them eat grass and some finished them on grass and others finish them on non GMO feed. So please tell all of us what you believe the cows are fed.
@@williamelliott exactly. We raise ours on rotating pasture and hay that we cut from our own fields (organic with ZERO pesticides in the area), and finish them on locally milled non GMO feed to supplement the grass and hay (we never put them in a feedlot because I hate dealing with bloat). It really makes me wonder about people who say "you won't believe what they're fed", when they would get mad cow disease if fed animal biproducts instead of a plant-based diet, because they're not designed to digest it. Pigs, on the other hand, can and will eat just about anything.
8.1 billion people live on earth, how should food resources be provided? 10B is an easy target in the near future, so what's next? The oceans/lands cannot produce enough food for us without upsetting the balance of the natural ecosystem. Artificial food production is inevitable. It also reminded me of Louis de Funes' 1976 film "The Wing or the Thigh" 🤣! They knew what was going to happen in the future
i remember reading when i was young, i am 73 now, an article about Spanish Olive Oil diluted with cheap -engine - oil. people had died because of this.
Years ago there was also an article with photos, horrible photos, of mothers with their kids in their arms, being blind, deaf, deformed, from eating fish that was poisoned with mercury.
The stories about lice and the salmon in these fish farms, are known since years.
Stinking meat,horse meat, made into Lasagna, Kebabs, Doner are all known. Since years.
What is being done about? Nothing or even less. It is MONEY THAT COUNTS; MONEY;MONEY MONEY:::
Aber 2.28 Minuten in die Sendung. Ist das Steak tartare und Pommes? Und der Salat dazu.Auf dem Teller da.
Was sind den das für kulinarische Pleitegeier? Die verdienen ja nichts anderes als betrogen zu werden!!!!!!!!!!
Engine oil in food oil? I'm hoping that's fake news, usually counterfeit olive oil will have cheaper vegetable oils like corn, canola or soy. Horse meat at least is healthy I'd think.
@@BensCoffeeRants THAT time there was no such a thing as - fake news- ... And i put - engine oil- this way. because it was the same way it was written already back then.( it was in a Reader's Digest magazine)
And the scandal with horse meat was NOT that it was horse meat. But it was NOT declared as horse meat. Which is far cheaper than beef, as it was written on the boxes and packets. And even sausages or salami. were adulterated..
By the way there is no better Salami than the one made in Macedonia. 50% donkey and 50 % horse meat. BUT is is being declared. And the price is accordingly.
THAT was the -problem.
With this Lasagna and Ravioli.
Subsidising for a cheaper product, but not declaring it.
But dont think it happened with the - cheaper cuts - only.
Prime cuts like tenderloin, sirloin and other prime cuts that demand top prices were just sold without the name -beef- . It was not BAD meat, but should have been far cheaper...
No wonder everybody gets sick !
this is just the top of the iceberg. just think about all the pesticides and microplastics we eat every day.
@@evastapaard2462And inhale
I would happily buy ground horsemeat if it were labeled as such and sold for half the price of beef. No hesitation whatsoever. Sneaking it into my beef and charging beef prices though is not acceptable.
Why is it so hard to use only genuine unadultered ingedients?
All of this time I have been avoiding products from China. Now I have to add European products to my Black List. Time to till the garden. Grow my own food.
Yes, if can do it, why not? Gardening is a healthy occupation, learn to can or freeze it for winter use.
what happened to the inspectors,are they corropt too🤬🤬🤬🤬
In many situations, yes the inspectors are corrupt as well. This is how this crap continues to happen. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😮

Horse meat is delicious. It's a shame that it's not as available and as popular as it should be.
@@alexcoralin584 Yes I find it's liver goes best with fava beans and a nice glass of Chianti. Have the horses stopped neighing Clarice?
Horses are dumb af.
Dogs are smart.
Hard pass, kinda like eating a dog..
@@WaningGibbous actually my parents lived on a ranch in California in the 1960s and one of the hands there fried up horse meat regularly and it smelled like lamb but stronger. They wouldn't eat it. It's actually a very Heathy meat and not factory fed and full of drugs.Just psychological.
@@alexcoralin584 dog meat is reserved for pet food.
I am from Canada and I am ashamed that our country allows the export of both live horses for slaughter and horsemeat. I wish they would change the laws to ban it.
Me too, from Canada, and we are no different than any other nation in their abuses towards animals. Live transport of all farmed animals worldwide is extensive, and beyond cruel and heartbreaking. The terror must be unimaginable. I totally agree.
When I lived in Lisbon - Portugal. Curiously close by, there was a horse meat butcher. One of the so very few in the entire city. Really an extremely rare thing. They could only sell horse meat and chicken. No other types of meat were allowed, precisely to avoid any confusions or "mixing".
Anyway the catch is that I ended up trying it. Lo & behold that turned out to be my first choice in most cases. Not only there's a obvious price advantage. But is for all effects as good as any mainstream meats. In fact better. ;-)
The meat is quite good and tasty. Way better than lamb, goat, chicken, duck, ostrich, whale, rain deer or moose... And yes, ostrich were mostly produced in Portugal. And for context the last ones is because I'm currently living in Norway. Where the last three are relatively accessible. I should say I'm not a fan of those. 😞
All said, I would put horse meat at the same level as beef or pork! With slightly different features, but equally tasty, with good consistence, color and texture.
And I've also tried some more "exotic" varieties. Like monkey, croc, frog legs or snails. None of them worth the mention. Except for snails, as Portuguese do have a long and tasty tradition with snails, excellent! To the point that Portugal still import some of their snails from Morocco. While we export almost 90% of our production of black pig. So the Spanish can make their famous "Pata Negra" ham. Crazy markets! ;-)
The only meats I deliberately never touched. Were Monitor lizard and African rats! They call it "fruit rats", but sorry it's really a rat! Both in Africa. That I confess was a bit over my head. LOL 🙂
So the horse thing, I see it as a obvious business scam. Half price! But surely not a OMG thing. 🙂
Wherever there's money, there's a wealth-addicted circle of mostly men willing to do anything to keep their pile of cash growing.
Solution: Buy local from producers and grow your own IF AT ALL POSSIBLE. Even one big planter with greens and a tomato plant is better than nothing. Or join a community garden. These "people" only understand money. Taking away from their bottom line is the only way to reach them. Do what you can, whatever you can.
How utterly disturbing to see such cruelty 🤬🤬!!!! How can a person become so desensitised to the suffering of an animal? I don't understand human behaviour 🤷.
We gotta eat... we're top of the food chain.
@@AcidMan_303 Mate, I eat meat, but I'm referring to the way they treated the already sick cows. We don't have to be cruel to the animals we eat.
@@loraineriddell7157 Whys there so many bakeries in Cornwall?

@@ChickpeatheTortienot so, the very small percentage of uncaring psychopaths seem to move into positions where they exploit the decent people who wouldn't think of doing these things.
Industrial lubricants? 😮 Seriously, if I want WD-40 on my salad, I’ll spray it on myself!
go with the silicone spray its easier to pass
"Hello Fresh" Dinner Door Deliveries use Lab Created Meats & it has GMO too! I bet most are doing this!
If you cannot be bothered to know what is going into your mouth, no worries; otherwise, buy what you recognize. Grind your own, or just braise it.
So everyone is upset about people in need eating horsemeat???? A lot of people can't even afford meat and there's nothing wrong with horsemeat, there's just a stigma that goes with it.
The outrage comes from things being labeled as 💯 beef when in fact its horse meat.
No you numbskull. We're outraged you sell X as Y
My husban would say, "I'm so hungry I could eat the south end of a north bound mule!" 😂
The bit about counterfiet olive oil should be punishable by death if you consider the health effects of the oil they are swapping it with.
The irony of them adding vegetable protein to the meat to increase its protein content, when so many people believe vegetables don't have protein. I've been growing a garden the last few years. I just wish I could do it all year round!
Why can you not grow all year?
Why is industrial food dominated by American companies? For our health??
Italy 🇮🇹- we need your pure 100% extra Virgin olive 🫒 oil. No fakes please
BUSINESS and the pursuit of making profit ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS goes to the disadvantage of citizens. It's probably EXACTLY the same in health care. We are mere numbers and everything is run to the rhythm of planned obsolescence in consumerism. It makes me sick and managers nake me sick that live by the " holy commandment " of ROI at the expense of people.
exactly, and think of the stuff we are not allowed to have, inventions that go "black" as it would destroy business.. For example a cure for cancer, WILL NEVER HAPPEN. Being able to turn the gene on to create a new set of teeth, like a 10 year old, WILL NEVER HAPPEN as it would destroy the dental industry, Free energy, NEVER HAPPEN... and so much more... Why are human beings so selfish and greedy? to inhibit inventions to make life better?
SO EVIL. PLANET.
Evil Food Supply ;)
If horse meat is cheaper, why isn't it sold the same way beef and pork is? Protein is very important for human health and then poorer people have easier access to red meat.
Westerners just don't want to eat it because we have been taught it's icky - but it's just animal meat.
When profit is the only goal of our industrial institutions then that profit needs to come from somewhere. Either the quality goes down or the price goes up. Usually both. Even from my teenage years this system just never made any sense. The greater majority of people, the people that actually consume the food, or other products, want a good product that requires as little purchasing power possible.
But our current economic model provides the exact opposite. You pay way more for way worse products.
And all that money, all that purchasing power, goes to people who sold you that shitty product which makes them seem successful so they will just do it more because that is what our laws, regulations and policies reward.
I'm Canadian, and the horsemeat segment is sad but true. Thousands of Canadians buy a horse every year, not as work animals but as pets. When the costs of keeping a horse begin to sink in the novelty wears off, so the horse is sold 'to a good home'. In fact, the buyers are brokers, and most end up in Europe and Japan to be slaughtered for food. Now, I have no problem with this. I have no issue with eating horse meat. I'm sure it's delicious. But ignorant Canadians with their horse-owning fantasies are unwittingly fueling and funding this fraud against consumers. I doubt anything will ever change.
Same happens in the USA
Wondered how they were getting it so cheap.. Getting it others to farm them then buying for next to nothing when they want rid of them.
Thanks for your useful vidio
Did I understand the closing statement correctly the EU wish to push to responsibility of food standards onto the supermarkets? It's well known at least in the UK that the EU implements which rules suit it best depending on the country in question and appears food quality or lack of is a good example!
That’s wild. In Canada we have a cost of living prices. Supermarkets are engrossed in greed-flation. They would never care about counterfeit as long as they are still making billions.
My father once bought an old horse at auction and had it processed. He fed it to his family without telling us at first. All us kids knew something was off. It was so bad. No amount of spices fixed it. As the oldest, I confronted him. He admitted that it was horse. We all refused to eat any more of it. Thanks to my mother, one decent thing she ever did, who loved horses, lambasted him. He sold it to a dog breeder. Yuk, and ick, and just balls!
I am very afraid of eating away from home even the veges are messed up when you purchase form others. J eagher producing food for myself
