I remember we at one point were shipping chicken to China to be processed—and then shipped back to us. Do you know where the apples are grown? (I mean, what’s more American...)

if liberals are willing to pay double for organic stuff at whole foods

we should suck it up and pay more for American produce at a ‘American only grocery’ store.

and if you can’t afford it, just do without the luxury.

when Richmond had a chain of grocery store called ukrop’s, I only shop there exclusively. ukrops are a self made american dream comes true, I’m still good friends with Bobby, we went to each other’s wedding.

I know we did (still do?) this with pigs. Pig farms in the USA sent the carcasses to China, then it came back as processed meat, such as bacon. Ridiculous.

Apples are native to China which is why the legend of Johnny Appleseed was born.

The apples are grown in China. The juice is made into concentrate to be shipped here.

************ concentrate is sourced from China or other major exporters like Ukraine, Turkey, Argentina, or Chile
