          I drive a refridgerated semi in the U.P.and I deliver food to grocery stores.Chicken is never put above anything in the trailor.And if our trailors are'nt the right temp when we get there we have it reloaded into another trailor.Trailors that are'nt running right are always priority to be serviced that day.I believe alot of the problems are with haulers that travel several states and don't deliver everything the same day.I can't believe the stores and restaurants accept a load like that.

            I certainly didnt mean to question the integrity of any industry by posting story...I certainly believe improper storage at destination of food is probably as much an issue...

            Hopefully like the article said they can put some laws on books to give some power to even the police....

            Maybe random checks on refridgerated long haul carriers at weigh stations etc..

                    so now yer puttin' it on me!!

                    look, everyone who draws a paycheck from the food industy is responsible for the safety of it's patrons. i hate those who just don't give a shit and pass the buck.....that's how people get sick and unfortunately some die. what if the guys at discount tire or your favorite airline had that view. for the most part, people in the food industry (that i have been around) care about the products we serve and value customer confidence.

                    btw - nice article b-day boy!

                      All the cold storage rigs i drove had a record keeper on it so we do a pretty good job for the most part but there is some knuckleheads out there that try to get away with something they did wrong.
                      All is good ALX a little reminder never hurt anyone.
                      I do wish the news would print/show the 99% that are doing a good job once in a while though.

                              wonder if this problem has been corrected?

                              bringing perishables to the desert must be a challenge today and what it was years ago is another story.

                              I watched a show on food inspectors years back, most put their nose right on the product and smelled it. said it was the best way to get their nose to find a hint of spoilage.

                              I have been doing this now for some time. works for me I have put so much chicken back and even beef that smelled funny.
