In the United States, the FDA maintains strict safety regulations for chicken production, ensuring that meat meets rigorous health standards. China also has official guidelines, but enforcement is often weak or inconsistent, leaving many farmers unaware or unregulated.
As a result, serious issues have emerged in China’s eastern regions, including outbreaks of Avian flu, heavy metal contamination, and harmful bacteria in poultry. These health risks underscore the importance of transparent oversight and make it essential for consumers to scrutinize the source of their chicken.
