  1. I think the real advantage in the EU market is that it's got some of the highest food standards in the world and because of it being a massive market, it can source a lot of food internally and when you put the two together, consumers have a lot of choice when it comes to high quality foods. Food poisoning is quite rare in the EU and I can't even remember the last time I've had it but it must be many years ago, food poisoning in the US tends to be much higher than in the EU and it's probably why a lot of the trade wars the EU and US have had tend to be about food, basically, the US wanting to sell lower quality food in the EU market and the EU not allowing it. Smaller markets around the world are not so fortunate as they don't have the economic muscle to fight back like the EU can, the UK might be a prime example of that now they are not in the EU and many seems to want a bonfire on EU regulations which basically means lower standards across the board and I imagine the UK is under a lot of pressure from the US on that because the UK is in a weaker position without EU protection, there have also been some concern in the UK about the trade deal they did with Australia as they allow more things to be done with food than what can be done in the EU market and UK at the moment, basically, Brits are worried that food standards will drop with imports from Australia but if I'm not mistaken, that trade deal might get put on hold because of this.
