New #Brexit checks will cause food shortages in UK, importers warn

In the week after the government was accused of blindsiding the British food industry by giving 27 days’ notice that every consignment of items such as camembert, steak, tulips and chives would be subject to fees of up to £145, small retailers such as delis and farm shops have been scrambling to make sure they still have products to sell.

But they say some EU exporters have already decided that they have had enough of British red tape and are either pausing supply operations or have given up completely.

Food wholesalers and trade associations have told the Observer of suppliers in EU countries who are already looking at other markets instead of the UK.

Almost rotten meat for sale at our local SPAR store.

I can't believe the expiration date on the package is accurate, or probably these grind meat were grinded from already expired meat and relabeled. A dirty trick many food chains do these days.

I stopped buying packed meat from supermarkets years ago. Have my own meat grinder and buy fresh cuts from our Tunisian butcher that is actually cheaper than almost all major supermarkets in the region.
