So the “science based policies” will now ban US beef on the basis of all the growth hormones and unnecessary antibiotics pumped in to them?

@YuriOtani
you should know that each style of beef from different countries are typically for different styles of cooking.

I wish they would lift that ban. I want some American bacon. I’m tired of this real pork tasting bacon. Too natural for me.

Warning tough stringy American beef coming to a store near to you! More fat and gristle! It will be like shopping in an American commissary!

Seriously? I hope the newer imports are better than the fatty and tasteless crap cuts of US beef I see at my local supermarket. It still won't make me buy it though.

Still illegal to bring american Beef jerky into Japan? Asking for a friend.

So now there will be more American burgers, this time with real American beef. Then, Japanese are more happier than Americans.

Oh, that's great news! Actually, the ban was once lifted in 2005, but then reinstated in 2006 when another outbreak of BSE was confirmed in the US. Wait... does this mean I can order beef jerky?! I'm tired of ordering the slim Jim n cheese combos, but only getting the cheese.

Ministry knows it is safe in January and by miracle lift comes in May after a few days Trump points the finger to Japan.
Go go go Trump, I want to see good cheaper meat in Japan.

cheaper stews ?
If so, then its Time for Japanese to learn SloCooker cooking... thats the only way (baring lots of sugar) to handle older tougher meat.

Is that some joke... pretty sure I saw American bacon at nissin.

Can Japan also lift the restriction on American bacon?
