First they had the Pig flu that decimated their pig population, then the Contra virus, now the Bird flu ...

Once is happenstance.

Twice is coincidence.

Three times is enemy action.

Good question. I read a story years ago that due to the way trade was so ass-backwards it would save chicken producers money to send the chickens to China to have plucked and broiled only to send them back to the US for sale. Think I'll start looking at the label more frequently.
