The worst aspect is there is no need to advise customers that the chicken is chlorine washed, as it is a process rather than an ingredient.
I dare say the country of origin would be a dead giveaway. Frankly, I can't see this as being a major turnoff for British consumers, particularly if it's cheaper.
