Very interesting piece on what we are eating and now the requirement to show "Country of origin" on product labeling is no longer required!!!
THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT. ALL OF US NEED TO BE AWARE OF WHAT WE ARE EXPOSED TO WITH REGARD TO OUR FOOD.
Smithfield Farms, the largest pork producing farm in the USA was sold in September to China with the unanimous
support of its stockholders.
The hogs will still be raised here, but slaughtered and packaged for sale **there** before being sent back
here. This includes labels: of Morrell, Eckrich, Krakus, Cudahy, Premium Hams, Cook's, Gwaltney.
The same is true with chickens under these labels. They can now be shipped there, but when they come back
all that needs to> be on the label is that they… WERE RAISED IN THE USA. Not that they were processed in China.
Our great FDA at work. The chickens under these labels will all be processed and most sold to fast food restaurants,
schools and supermarkets. The China slaughter and processing requirements are, for the most part,
unregulated and far inferior to requirements of the U.S.A.*
We recently learned that Starkist Tuna is now owned by Korea and is in conflict with the U. S. concerning quality, safety,
and records keeping, which Korea refuses to produce.*
I read several articles on Google about this, and even one that was defending the eating of tilapia fish said to avoid the
fish that came from China. Also, I had just returned home from buying Albertson's 4-day special of 4 bags of frozen tilapia
for the price of one. Sure enough, on the top of the bags it read "farm raised", and on
the bottom, in small print, it said: "China.*
Recently, on TV, a Food inspector said he had lived overseas and he had seen the filthy conditions
their foods are raised and processed in. It is enough to make you throw-up. Some foreign workers have
to wear masks as they work in these places because the food is so rotten and filthy, it
makes them want to throw up.
Many of their fish on Fish Farms are fed raw sewage daily. He said he has seen so much filth throughout
their food growing and processing that he would "never" eat any of it. They raise this filth, put some food coloring
and some flavorings on it, then they ship it to the USA & Canada for YOU to consume and feed to YOUR
families. They have no Food & Safety Inspectors. They ship it to you to buy
and poison your families and friends.*
Imported food we eat is junk kiss emoticon
Green Giant frozen vegetables are from China, and so are most of Europe’s Best.
Arctic Gardens are Okay. So is Birdseye.*
Never buy the grocery store garlic unless it is clearly marked from USA or Canada, the other stuff is grown in
people’s… dung (even worse than chicken poop). China is the largest producer of garlic in the world; U.S. is next.*
Buy only local honey. Much honey is shipped in huge
Containers from China and packaged here.*
Cold-FX is grown and **packed** in China and is full of fecal bacteria. Doesn't work anyway; it is a big scam.*
If the country of origin on a product is not clearly marked, “beware.” If the product is produce, ask an employee.*
Watch out for packages which state "prepared for," "packed by" or "imported by" or "distributed by."
We advocate mandatory labeling, especially the produce.*
The country of origin should be clearly shown on the item in the store.*
Go to the local farmers' markets in season for your produce and keep a wary eye open the rest of the year.*
Please read this very carefully, and read to the very bottom.
It's important for all of us.*
The above facts indicate how it is possible to ship food from China cheaper than having it produced in the U.S. or
Canada.*
PLEASE NOTE--THE "OUR FAMILY" BRAND OF MANDARIN ORANGES SAYS RIGHT ON THE CAN 'FROM CHINA'
SO, FOR A FEW MORE CENTS, BUY THE LIBERTY BRAND. GOLD BRAND OR DOLE ARE FROM CALIFORNIA.*
Beware, Costco sells canned peaches and pears in a plastic jar that come from China.*
ALL "HIGH LINER" AND MOST OTHER FROZEN FISH PRODUCTS COME FROM CHINA OR INDONESIA.
THE PACKAGE MAY SAY "PACIFIC SALMON" ON THE FRONT, BUT LOOK FOR THE SMALL PRINT.
MOST OF THESE PRODUCTS COME FROM FISH FARMS IN THE ORIENT WHERE THERE ARE NO REGULATIONS ON
WHAT IS FED TO THESE FISH.*
Recently The Montreal Gazette had an article by the Canadian Government on how Chinese feed the fish
They suspend chicken wire crates over the fish ponds, and the fish feed on chicken dung.*
If you search the Internet about what the Chinese feed
their fish, you'll be alarmed; e. g, growth hormones, expired anti-biotic from
humans.
Never buy any type of fish or shellfish that comes from these countries: Vietnam, China, Philippines.*
Check this out personally. Steinfeld's Pickles* *are produced in India - just as bad!*
Another example is canned mushrooms. No-Name brand comes from Indonesia…*
Also check those little fruit cups. They used to be made in Canada, in the Niagara region, until about 2 years ago.
They are now packaged in China. Most sold in Aldi
stores.*
While the Chinese export inferior and even toxic products, dangerous toys, and goods to be sold in North American
markets, the media wrings its hands! Yet, 70% of North Americans believe that the trading
privileges afforded to the Chinese should be
suspended.*
Why do we need the government to suspend trading
privileges? THIS IS A YOURSELF PROJECT.
Simply look on the bottom of every product you buy, and if it says 'Made in China' or 'PRC' (and that now
includes Hong Kong), simply choose another product or none at all. You will be amazed at
how dependent you are on Chinese products, and you will be equally amazed at what you can do
THINK ABOUT THIS:*
If 200 million North Americans refuse to buy just $20 each of Chinese goods, that's a billion dollar trade imbalance
resolved in our favor... fast! The downside? Some Canadian/American businesses will feel a temporary pinch
from having foreign stockpiles of inventory.*
Just one month of trading losses will hit the Chinese for 8% of their North American exports. Then they will at least have
to ask themselves if the benefits of their arrogance and lawlessness are worth it.*
Share with your friends. Start reading labels more closely and
buy something else even if it costs a few cents more.*
