Foreign Foods

EDM number 809 in 1990-91, proposed by Ann Winterton on 07/05/1991.

That this House notes the proposed ban on certain traditional British snack foods on the spurious grounds of health, as recommended by Herr Bangemann, European Industry Commissioner; commends his vigilance and concern for the well-being of the British people; but believes that on like grounds the ban should be extended to include foods of such doubtful nutritional value as pretzels, pumpernickel, pizza, garlic sausage, knockwurst and sauerkraut.

This motion has been signed by a total of 6 MPs.
