America's food inspectors are warning that 'unsafe' pork could make it to consumers under a change in rules for meat inspection.
Potential defects, according to Mauer, include feces, sex organs, toenails, bladders and unwanted hair.
The USDA disputes those assertions, insisting that USDA inspectors are free to stop or slow the line if they see any problems. NBC News also reached out to each of the five processing plants involved in the pilot program. Four referred NBC to the National Pork Producers Council, which in turn referred requests for comment to the North American Meat Institute.
"At that chain speed, it's hard for any human to identify what they need to," Vallone said."But, you know, as they push more hogs through the door, and they're not identifying even basic pathology like every inspector does, possibility of having pathological hogs into your food source." Records show there have been no serious public health problems or pork food poisoning outbreaks linked to the test plants, although food safety experts say it's difficult to say that the meat hasn't made anyone sick.
