00:00Hi, welcome back to my channel, in this video, I will explain Poisoned, the dirty truth about

00:04your food, so, let's begin.

00:07The Netflix documentary Poisoned the dirty truth about your food investigates the current

00:11situation of the food industry in the United States.

00:14For decades, consumers have been told that the food supply in the United States is the

00:18safest in the world, but is there any truth to the statement?

00:21Well, not really.

00:24With millions getting affected by foodborne diseases in the United States, it is evident

00:28that the safety regulators have failed the consumers over and over again.

00:32Director Stephanie Sochtig, best known for Under the Gun and Fed Up, dares to directly

00:36ask unsettling questions to the authorities, making the documentary impactful.

00:41How did the US counter E. coli in hamburgers?

00:44Sochtig visits a supermarket with food safety lawyer Bill Marler, who has dedicated 30 years

00:49of his life to fighting cases on behalf of victims.

00:52Marler points out that most of the fresh vegetables and raw meat found in the market are contaminated.

00:58Romaine lettuce is infamous for being one of the most contaminated vegetables, and since

01:01it is not cooked, it poses all the more danger.

01:05Cut fruits are, of course, dangerous because consumers eat them directly from the box.

01:10To better understand the food safety situation, the documentary takes us back to 1993.

01:15People, in general, did not think much about the E. coli spread when the news first broke

01:19out.

01:20But gradually, the number of affected people in Washington kept on increasing as the disease

01:25started to spread more and more rapidly.

01:28Children were particularly at risk since the toxin released from E. coli O157 affected

01:32every organ of the body, ultimately leading to multiple organ failure and death.

01:37It was soon found that the undercooked hamburgers sold at Jack in the Box were responsible for

01:41the outbreak.

01:42While bacteria found in steaks die when seared, in minced meat, the situation is complicated.

01:48Since minced meat consists of meat from different animals, the chances of the product being

01:52infected are higher.

01:54Fresh out of law school, Bill Marler was deeply disturbed upon seeing the impact of

01:58the disease, especially after knowing how it could have all been easily avoided.

02:02Perfectly healthy individuals were falling ill simply because they decided to have a

02:06hamburger.

02:07From then on, Marler decided to fight for the victims.

02:11Darren DeWeiler was devastated upon seeing his 16-month-old son, Riley, at the hospital

02:16as a result of a secondary E. coli infection.

02:19The doctors gave up when Riley developed hemolytic uremic syndrome.

02:23There was no chance of him recovering, and the parents decided to pull him off life support

02:27and hold him close to their hearts one last time.

02:30The Washington State Advisory notified the eateries to cook the meat they served at 155

02:35degrees.

02:36But Jack in the Box knowingly ignored the requirement and continued to serve undercooked

02:39hamburgers.

02:41In a television interview, the president of iJack in the Box, Robert Nugent, denied the

02:45rumor and implied that the company was complying with the law.

02:49The company was in jeopardy when Bill Marler found evidence that proved that they were

02:52not following the regulations.

02:54After going through the documents he had received from iJack in the Box, he found out that an

02:58employee had notified the authorities about the customer complaints regarding undercooked

03:02hamburgers.

03:04The email exchange proved that the company had received the regulation and decided that

03:07they would continue to cook their meat at the temperature that they previously did.

03:11To counter the problem at hand, Bill Clinton brought people capable of bringing change

03:15on board.

03:16Mike Taylor played an important role in altering the official policy of the USDA, which offered

03:21little to no solution to the problem.

03:23The onus of the entire situation fell upon the consumers and not on the regulatory board.

03:28Taylor decided that it was crucial to declare E. coli O157 an adulterant and that action

03:33would be taken in case raw ground beef was found to be contaminated in the marketplace.

03:38It was a quick action that helped in eradicating a disease that stemmed from hamburgers, but

03:42the same cannot be said about the other products that are still available in the market.

03:46Why is the US failing to eradicate Salmonella?

03:49In 2018, there was another E. coli outbreak, and this time it was the lettuce that infected

03:54the consumers.

03:56Even if the consumer bought organic lettuce, it could still be infected since it was not

03:59pathogen-free.

04:01Lettuce is exposed to animal waste on farms, and that is why it carries the bacteria.

04:06Lack of regulation of animal wastes is another leading cause of foodborne disease.

04:11Stephanie Sochtig interviews spokepersons from the USDA and FDA, the USDA is responsible

04:16for meat, poultry, egg products, and catfish, while the FDA is responsible for regulating

04:21the remaining 80% of the US food system.

04:24Sandra Eskin, deputy undersecretary for food safety, repeatedly mentioned that the USDA

04:29does not have the authority to look into the contamination of irrigation water.

04:33The discussion was limited to what was already known.

04:36In 2009, Salmonella started to spread widely as a result of infected peanuts.

04:42The Peanut Corporation of America supplied peanuts to various brands, and their lack

04:46of accountability resulted in the outbreak.

04:49According to former employee Kenneth Kendrick, there was a leak in the roof that brought

04:52in bird crap, and the plant had mice sprawling all around.

04:56When informed about the deteriorating condition of the plant, Stuart Parnell, the owner of

05:00Peanut Corporation of America, ordered Kendrick not to speak a word about it.

05:04Not only was Parnell aware of the plant condition, but he also knew that his product tested positive

05:09for Salmonella.

05:10But instead of rejecting the lot, Parnell advised retesting over and over again unless

05:14it was negative.

05:16There came a point when there were no negative results, and that was when they started to

05:20forge the results.

05:21There was a large-scale recall of products when the disease started to spread.

05:26Stuart Parnell was brought down when the FDA teamed up with the Department of Justice.

05:30Ultimately, Parnell was sentenced to 28 years in prison.

05:34Parnell did not suffer from guilt, for him, it was just business and numbers, and even

05:38today, he continues to appeal.

05:41In 2010, there was a massive egg recall after another Salmonella outbreak.

05:46Jack DaCosta, a known name in the egg industry with over 50 years of experience, is infamous

05:51for running unclean farms.

05:53After years of running his business scot-free, he received a three-month prison term for

05:57it.

05:58Stephanie Sochtig also questions the senior vice president of Purdue, Bruce Stewart Brown,

06:02about the safety measures taken by their company.

06:05Purdue is one of the four prominent names in the egg industry, and they granted the

06:08team of All Poisoned the dirty truth about your food access to their facility.

06:13While Purdue demonstrates the many safety measures they take to make sure that the eggs

06:16are not contaminated, the results of the tests conducted by the documentary team make one

06:21question the truth of it.

06:23One of the most important reasons for the continued spread of Salmonella is said to

06:26be the lack of treatment of poultry at the farming level since USDA regulations begin

06:30only at the slaughter level.

06:32Upon testing five samples of store-bought chicken, the one that tested positive for

06:36Salmonella was Purdue's.

06:38When confronted about it, Brown stated that a single case cannot be used to make any deductive

06:42statement.

06:43So, the team went ahead and collected 150 samples for testing in a short span of time

06:48from different states.

06:50By the end of Poisoned the dirty truth about your food, the result was revealed, and the

06:54Salmonella positivity rate for the overall sample was found to be 17%.

06:59And Purdue did not pass the test since 29% of its sample tested positive.

07:04The company maintains that it tries its best to make sure that its products are free from

07:09Salmonella.

07:10Bill Marler called for a ban on 31 strains of Salmonella in his petition to the USDA.

07:15After the petition was filed by Marler, the USDA banned Salmonella in a few chicken products,

07:20though Salmonella is allowed in most products.

07:24Poisoned the dirty truth about your food puts forward the problem at hand in a thought-provoking

07:27way.

07:28The documentary binds together stories of personal losses and the entire argument around

07:33food safety in a concise manner.

07:35That's all for now folks, I would appreciate it if you could give the video a super thanks
