Agriculture used to be viewed as a militarily sensitive industry.

You can’t field a military without feeding them. Therefore we should never become dependent on foreign countries for food.

The only good news is that after all of the China food scares, few Americans are going to be willing to buy China raised chickens, FDA inspected or not.

You will never know if Chinese chicken is in restaurant food, not to mention frozen dinners.

I already avoid all shrimp.

Problem is, people won’t be able to tell which chicken is made in the USA

Apple juice is the same today. Any juice that comes from or uses concentrate is from china

Yea... This will end well... not

We won't know. Sure, we'll buy the Raised In American chicken meat but eventually virtually any product containing chicken will contain the cheap, imported chicken.

Count me in those “few.”

I bought a box of frozen tilapia from ChiCom, and it tasted like moldy dirt. The fish were probably raised in sewage water and cleaned in outhouse detritus. Blah! I now read the packaging on everything, and if I see China on the label it goes back on the shelf.
