Sorry....I would like to know where the food I ingest comes from. If it's foreign, the companies importing it should have to label it. Everything else we purchase is labeled with country of origin....why should food be any different?

If you want to know do what people have done for centuries, ask your local clerk.

Knowing where the fruit or vegatable came from guarentees you nothing. They can be contaminated in another country or at any point of transit. I find it a vanity law, to be honest. Most Americans do not take time to search their produce for geographical locations.
