The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) at the Port of San Francisco destroyed numerous illegal containers imported into the U.S from China. These containers contained rat meat! The strange thing about this is the plan this rat meat to be sold as chicken meat. The idea was the nasty meat to be shipped to different points in several states, and to be sold as chicken.
The FDA states that there is a possibility of another 300,000 lbs. of this meat being offered in groceries and restaurants across the U.S. The FDA inspector, Ronal Jones, claims that if cooked completely, this meat is not dangerous.

If true, soebarkah’s getting his cut, as well as some of his favorite rat dish.

Instead of passing off the rat meat as chicken, they should turn it into cat food. Cats would like canned food made from rat meat better than any other, and they would make a fortune.
I would probably rat eat if hungry, but if I’m ordering chicken I want it to be chicken.
Don’t let Granny hear you say that.
I knew I was making a good decision by sticking to the traditional (bone-in) wings. At least I know what I’m getting. The boneless ones could be anything and they usually cover them in bread crumbs.
What about Pizza Hut?
I’m always suspicious of blog postings that read like they were written by an illiterate fifth-grader.
That’s just sick.....

I thought it tasted pretty good myself...
mmmmmmm... crispy.
We don’t buy or eat anything from China or Indonesia. If it ain’t labelled it stays on the shelf.
Only Democrats have time for such...not I.
More than sick. All Planned Parenthood staff associated with abortions should be tried, convicted, and sentenced by a Nuremberg-style court for genocide, crimes against humanity, and treason.

From the Bangkok Post (Thailand). 1 million Baht is about $25,000.
Grilled rats have become a local hit in Phitsanulok province and a couple has reportedly earned over a million baht a year selling them.
Somboon Yooyen, 50, and her boyfriend Somsak Tiwong run a grilled rodent stall on Sukhothai-Phitsanulok road near tambon Phai Kho Don.
“I am proud of selling grilled rats and I earn roughly 2,000 to 3,000 baht each day, sometimes 10,000 baht a day during festivals. This occupation provides me with enough cash to buy a truck and a house in only a couple of years,” said Ms Somboon.
The street vendor said she has been selling grilled rats for about six years. She said small rats go for 200 baht per kilogramme, medium size rats for 220 baht/kg, large ones for 250 baht/kg and raw ones for 180 baht/kg.
Most of the customers are locals who purchase about 3-5kg each time while tourists usually buy around 0.5kg as gifts.
Rat meat is becoming more popular in northern and central provinces. The meat can be roasted, stewed and fried, Ms Somboon added.
