Lost amid the anxiety surrounding the tainted U.S. pet food supply is this sobering reality: It's not just pet owners who should be worried. The uncontrolled distribution of low-quality imported food ingredients, mainly from China, poses a grave threat to public health worldwide.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
Tea and spices from the Orient, imagine! No wonder our forefathers and all dead.

That's why if the citrus isn't from my own backyard I insist on it being labeled as 100% Florida orange juice.
As an interesting side note on an unrelated topic, I remember seeing orange groves throughout central Florida and know there were orange groves in north Florida. Now, if you really want to see the groves you need to go to south Florida. Hard freezes helped push the groves south. So much for global warming.
Being a denizen of Chester County right on the border with Lancaster County, I have sampled a few and I much prefer Dunkin Donuts. The sausage and pepper sandwiches, however, are without parallel.
Yet another of the benefits of GLOBALISM.
Thank you multinationals and international banksters!
From what I've read the melamine was most likely added intentionally to boost the apparent protein content of the gluten when tested.
I agree.
I hate liberals too.
Can anyone tell me what is NOT made in China?
“...Ever since Anita Bryant spoke out against the homosexual agenda and the American citrus growers dropped her...”
Yep the sure gave the Robert Bork treatment to Anita. I was shocked at how Americans laughed at her and her pie-in-the-face treatment from the pervs. Anita had feet of clay like us all but...she also put principles above her career. The orange growers should still be ashamed of themselves.
On another thread yesterday (similar topic) I mentioned how I noticed that apple juice bottles all had (in tiny print) 'concentrate product of China.' Now why is apple juice concentrate imported? We don't grow apples here?
Start reading labels folks...its our only defense.
I don’t suppose you care for scrapple then.
Bu who doesn’t love funnel cake?
Kruschev’s probably rolling over in his grave right now thinking that he should have just poisoned us with cheap food instead of wasting all that money on nukes.
I bought a couple of yard rakes the other day. They were made right here in PA!
Your own home-grown food. All the more inspiration for me to work harder in my garden this year.
I love scrapple - everything but the oink - and I do like funnel cake. I dislike shoo-fly pie however.
My favorite is strawberry-rhubarb pie!
Mmmmmmmmmm!
Nah - cherry. Sour cherry pie, mmmmmmmm.
Isn’t our massive trade with a China pretty much a direct result of the MFN status?
And China’s MFN status is a direct result of Bill Clinton’s ... amazing ... personality.
We may yet not survive the FIRST Clinton presidency.
