In purchasing whatever is on sale, you might want to check the label. Sometimes, the product originates outside the country. I prefer for our food to come from the USA.

Congress prefers that you have no way of knowing where your food comes from, they have made a point of rejecting COOL (Country Of Origin Labeling) legislation year after year after year.

I agree. Unfortunately our GOP Congress is working to eliminate food country of origin labeling, knuckling under to the WTO instead of standing up for the right of American citizens to know where their food originates.
