My honey comes from the other side of the state but it sure doesn’t come from China. It is the cheapest on the shelf too probably because it comes in the biggest container.

Just wait for the Chinese GM cars.

You’ll be riding around in lead and melamine interiors.

Our neighbor has several hives and sells the honey they produce. It’s really good and I’m thankful to get it.

Always buy local honey. I buy honey from the guy down the road from me. Ain't no Chinee down there.

Doesn't matter where you are, there is a farmers' market somewhere close enough to get local goods.

AMEN! Neither, will I knowingly buy any product that touches food in it’s preparation, storage or consumption. No pots/pans, plates, flatware, etc.!!!

I try to buy nothing from China...but I’ll go the extra mile to not buy anything involved with food!!!

Our honey is from bees from California shipped to Alaska who make excellent honey from fireweed and clover. My wife has two hives that make prize winning honey every year. I don’t need no stinking chinese honey.

I threw away come cast iron pots made in China.

Just don't know what heavy metals could be lurking.

Exactly. When I couldn’t find what I was looking for—at my price—I found made-in-America’s at Goodwill and Salvation Army.

Go where you have to to buy safely!
