Washington Dulles airport.

Not Dallas.

We need a GIF of Peter Boyle saying “Holy Crap”.

“Washington Dulles airport...Not Dallas.”’

Still too close.

Or.... maybe inoculated with weaponized coronavirus? Crude is the way these chi-coms roll. See: Kim Jong’s dead brother killed in a airport by two party girls with smeared nerve agent on their rubber gloves.

Well, my mouth is watering...and not in a good way!

Yes, few months ago I went to an Asian store and purchase Japanese noodle (did not check box at store). When I got home and was preparing a meal I glanced at the box and in small letters it said “MADE IN CHINA”. I thought hell no, I’m not eating these noodles, so into the trash it went.

OMG I can’t believe what these people eat in other countries!!! YUCK!!!!

They look like fetuses, maybe of chickens.

Why would anyone feed that to a pet?

[HK_Kai_Chung]

The package claims they are common quail (鵪鶉).

[exDemMom]

Thank you. My ability to read Chinese is *extremely* limited.

They seized the birds but what about the person trying to smuggle them?

The fact that CBP incinerated the birds on behalf of the USDA WITHOUT any testing is also puzzling.

“Some Chinese brands like to use Japanese on their product packaging since people there tend to trust Japanese brands more than domestic brands.”

China does a lot of false packaging for their domestic market. Everything from baby formula to noodles to cars because the Chinese will pay more for what they think is a better product.

One video I saw showed a dealership re-badging a Chinese car with Ford nameplates and logo, including all interior badges.
Since Chinese cars are blatant rip offs of imported models no one can tell the difference unless they look at the fine details.
Most Chinese cars are junk long before they hit 100,000 miles. Most need major repairs by 25,000 miles...or sooner.
They even showed one car with Mack badging!

I got a thorough luggage inspection in Dulles because I was bringing in a... sausage. I had never noticed that on the form before (nor had I ever brought in a sausage before.) Immediately special attentions went into effect.

An agent immediately came to escort me down to baggage claim to find my suitcase. He took me to a special room with plenty of seats and others waiting. When I was called I took my suitcase to humongous machines, where I removed the offending product before my luggage went through a giant scanner.

As I left I couldn’t help seeing a woman from Africa going through her open suitcase removing piles of disgusting bush meat.

They probably figured it was safest to just incinerate the birds immediately...

If those are “quail”, they must get harvested really young in China...
