BEIJING, July 23 (UPI) -- Shanghai Police have detained five people associated with a U.S.-owned meat supplier involved in supplying major fast food chains with expired beef and chicken.
The Shanghai food and safety bureau said Wednesday that investigators had seized nearly 100 tons of meat products from the Shanghai Husi Food Co., which is owned by the Illinois-based OSI Group. Chinese state television exposed the use of expired chicken and beef by popular fast food chains and multinationals functioning in China.
