Amazing. Assuming that the Chinese weren't really our great friends and allies, they could take out an amazingly large number of our population without firing a shot. Beats the hell out of a neutron bomb.

Perhaps the pet food contaminations were a test run or just an accident, but it likely has shown some nut case exactly how easy it would be. Who needs suicide bombers when you control the food supply and what goes in it?

So...what does "made in China" mean? It means we have sacrificed much of our manufacturing, our farming and now our food and vitamin production on the alter of cheap prices while giving away our safety and peace of mind.

but it seems one has to be a farmer as well

maybe it would be just easier to join an Amish community

Exactly why I grow most of what I consume. I'm putting in a greenhouse this spring to extend my growing season so we'll have fresh, home grown salad makin's well into the winter months....

Yep...the kook in me thinks all this has been a bio-war test run. Problem is, that kook's been right about a lot of things over the years.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

From what I've read the melamine was most likely added intentionally to boost the apparent protein content of the gluten when tested.

Read this. I hope it is tin-foil hat stuff.
