Russia refusing to import our bleached chicken during Obama was a big falling out point with them. And they blocked the US adoption industry from trafficking Russian kids.
Big Ag has a lot of power here. They will be petty and make this hurt for the EU.
As an American that has traveled to many places, why would Europe want any type of American food. I felt like most countries I’ve traveled to especially in central and South America and places like Italy the food is more farm to table and by far way more healthier. Have you ever seen Fanta from Europe compared to USA?
How is the fanta different?
American Fanta is corn syrup and artificial orange flavor, Fanta in Europe is orange juice and cane sugar.
Still a soda, but like, actually a food instead of an industrial byproduct.
Look at a picture to start (my account is to new to upload a pic)
I've never seen belittling people get them to change their minds, but I have seen conservative attempt it hundreds of times.
Spoiler: I see the left doing it all the time as well. Shit, I see vegans trying it too.
It never works.
I belittle conservatives for my own enjoyment, and to laugh at them with my peers. I gave up on changing minds when I gave up on changing my dads, and that was 15 years ago at least (was a gradual decline, not sure when I actually gave up).
