And since the Chinese cannot differentiate between teh "R" and "L", you know what else is in their so-called
"rice"!
To: LibWhacker
Chinese “food” and “medicine” should be considered toxic waste.

Even food being mfg in the US is using raw materials from China. Another excellent point that's often overlooked. Hence the need for a website that says where everything originates, though I don't know who would embark on such a massive undertaking, or how they would make money at it. It's sorely needed.

But look at the bright side, glow in the dark Chinese cuts down on carbon from producing electricity for lights. Now does that not give you a warm glow.

I shouldnt be so surprised, I guess; the Chinese Communist Party doesnt care about its own people. Why should it care about ours?
And there you have it. Hmm, I wonder what shmucks the Chicoms will trot out and execute over this snafu?

Remember the baby formula the Chinese sold. Killed many babies before it was found out to have been deliberately contaminated, to increase profit, with no regard to safety.

It is pretty scary, the problem is that the content changes often, sometimes with each batch.
It may only be possible with a massive data collection effort which would completely erase any advantage on cost buying from China gives a company.

Cadmium poisoning is nasty business. The article mentions itai-itai disease in Japan (pain-pain). I’ve read about cases where certain Japanese women lost so much bone strength due to cadmium poisoning that their vertebrae began to collapse under the weight of their own spine. One woman eventually “shrank” something like 8 or 9 inches.

Hey, here is a scary thing. A few years back I saw Crawfish appear in the market for $5 a 10 lb sack.
Well sir, I live like 100 mi from your state so I bought it up not thinking about it and did a few crawfish boils.
It didnt seem quite right. I looked at the sack and it was from China!
How could they raise them and ship them around the world for cheaper than 100 mi?
I wont eat that **** ever again.
You know they are raising then in toxic sewage pits.
