GLOW IN THE DARK PORK CHOPS

Nov 16 - Meat and chicken that glow in the dark will not make you
sick but it is probably best not to eat them, the NSW Food
Authority said today.

The authority today reassured consumers about the safety of
their food after a Sydney talkback caller raised the alarm about
his glow-in-the-dark pork chops.

NSW Food Authority directory-general George Davey said a
harmless micro-organism called pseudomonas fluorescens
was responsible for the luminous meat.

"Pseudomonas fluorescens is not dangerous but the glow
indicates the food itself may not be the best and therefore the
Food Authority recommends people simply discard any food that
glows."
