Oh, I see, sarcasm
Except what I mentioned aren't conspiracy theories.
90+% of US beef contains 6 or more growth hormones. In dairy cows, this leads to comparatively large amounts of pus and blood cells in milk (compared to the UK, where the hormones are banned). Unlike in the UK, in the US hens aren't vaccinated against salmonella, so runny yolks are hazardous to pregnant women. Loose regulation of pesticides caused massive environmental problems before the millennium, and nitrogen-rich fertilisers (similarly ill-regulated) being washed off into nearby watercourses is causing problems now.
The US might call UK food bad, but in terms of ingredient quality, the UK wins hands down.
