CNN / Dobbs / Your Food safety / Carbon Monoxide

Kitty Pilgrim reports: Congressional meetings are being held about the practice of treating meat with carbon monoxide. Rep. Bart Stupak explains, carbon monoxide is used to keep its freshly ground red color even if the meat has spoiled. Congress wants the packaging to be labeled so the consumer would know.
Three years ago the European Environmental Committee outlawed the practice because it could mislead consumers about the freshness of the meat.
Seafood from China using antibiotics is also discussed.
