The US has turned into a third world country as far as food safety is concerned.

Not only food safety. Yesterday, I heard a news report that the FDA said they could not guarantee the safety of prescription medicines being imported. The report went on to say that nearly 80% of prescription medicines are imports, not manufactured within the US.

And we see more and more news reports like this one:

U.S. agriculture giant Cargill recalls ground beef - (E. Coli)

Yesterday, three Totino's Frozen Pizza brands were being pulled.

What is going on?

I had a cholesterol test 2 wks. ago. The results were much higher than last year.
I jokingly commented to the Dr. that the Vytorin I'm taking was likely switched to a Chinese plant.

When I got home I checked the label. This is a MERCK LABS drug mind you.

Made in Singapore!!
