A huge amount of Hershey products (& other candy companies) have sent their manufacturers to Mexico...*at Halloween, bag after bag after bag* .....Mexico

..also Nabisco....pick up any package of Fig Newtons....Mexico......also your cereals

Much of your Green Giant and Bird's Eye frozen veggies....Mexico.

Talapia from China....

It takes a discriminating shopper with time on his/her hands to find decent food that's USA manufactured.....The fresh locally grown produce is out there, but the stores display it like a needle in a haystack sometimes.----I don't even hesitate anymore to ask the produce manager where the USA grown products are.

another example.....pick up two packages of the same greens ie, spinach, arugula, etc.....from the same company, same brand, same packaging, same everything and one package will say USA...and the other Mexico.

And we know the standards in Mexico are just as high as ours...:^

Obama is ramping up what George W started....sending ALL the jobs Americans want to do or have been doing for years to other comtries.

Thank the sugar tariffs that "protect" a few US sugar producers.

I stopped buying Entemann’s and Thomas’s once I learned that they had been bought by the Mexican company Bimbo Bakery.
