If you are worried about it, don't buy the cheap stuff.

Its from all over the world. Those aparagus I mentioned were in a small mom and pop store.

These chickens could be grown in Mexico, shipped to china, processed, and exported to the US. Or France.

Cooking poultry sh*t at 165 degrees (surely that is Celsius rather than Fahrenheit) will kill all the viruses and bacteria too, but it will still be chicken sh*t.Speaking of which; to which chicken sh*t wimp in the government do we owe the thanks for this chicken sh*t deal?

I've heard that story too, but could never verify it. One day we're going to wise up and realize that the Chicoms are at the top of a very long list of enemies.

"Chinese chicken? Never in this household!"

No sh1t! I just hope there's a way to readily identify it. I'm sure whoever is exporting it will find ways of passing it off to us.

Meanwhile, the sellout continues. I guess these chickens are willing to do what American Chickens just won't do.

"Made in USA".


Actually, I am pretty sure that was a town in Japan. It was during the post-WWII period, when the Japanese were turning out a lot of shoddy merchandise.

Partly true. It was Japan that named a town Usa after the WW2. http://www.japan-101.com/geography/oita/usa.htm

a way to readily identify it...

Imported food must be identified as such on the label.

The real Bush has been kidnapped and the imposter has taken over.....

W has done some wonderful things, for which he must be given credit. He is NOT the man the left portrays him to be and they are lunatics when they attack him. But he is NOT a man of integrity, nor vision, and he is just his father, except a little more cunning because he learned a little bit from his father's laughable mistakes.

W cannot separate his privileged and absurd sense of noblesse oblige from actual, objective, principled integrity, anymore than Ted Kennedy can. And they have the same thing in common: they are neither very bright, and they both have the moneyed arrogance which so often leads to a confused lack of self-awareness. A dangerous combination.

W has precisely the same shallow attitude which, generally speaking, seperates conservatives from liberals and leftists.

W is Harriet Miers. But because he said Jesus was his favorite "political philosopher," a lot of folks cannot see him for who he is.

I would eat my beloved dogs before I would eat one item of food from China.

"Are a lot of the processed foods sold at Wal-Mart and places like that from China?"

Check out Walmart's frozen fish dept and you'll see plenty of it labeled "Product of China".

Well, this should certainly HELP our trade balance with China (sarcasm). Sometimes I do wonder what Bush is thinking.

Nope, 165 degrees fahrenheit. (You really wouldn't want to cook your poultry to 165 deg C - it'd be a wee bit overcooked!)

Thanks to this article I'll now only buy Kosher chicken. It's farm raised and the plant is in Pa. They even deliver!
