I can't believe this is happening.
Kidney failure, anyone?
Cheers!
Agriculture used to be viewed as a militarily sensitive industry.
You can’t field a military without feeding them. Therefore we should never become dependent on foreign countries for food.
The only good news is that after all of the China food scares, few Americans are going to be willing to buy China raised chickens, FDA inspected or not.
Why not? We already import American Pie from China /s
We do have options in my neck of the woods. Chukar partridge, quail and cottontail rabbits. Grown in America and just a gunshot away. If I see a chicken with grown in China stamped on it's ass I'll take a pass.
I read that American chicken producers are developing their own farms in China, then exporting the chicken to the states. So, it’ll say ‘Tyson,’ but come from China, where who knows what was done in the process.
There is enough filth in the American chicken production
process; we certainly don’t need to go to China to import impurities and sickness.
Just about every month I find another reason to stay vegan.
Wow! That makes me feel better. We get outbreaks of Ecoli from Mexican produce and they are not halfway around the world.
They had better have to clearly mark any chicken as originating in China so I can avoid it. I don’t even want to think of what kind of problems this will bring. And so what if we banned it outright, since they haven’t complied with even pet food regulations to date.
Yeah, our trade "leadership" is really in question. Our annual trade deficit is around $700 billion now, and $266 billion deficit with China in 2008.
And will these Chinese chicken products be labeled at to country of origin? Many have been blocking that bit of information for US consumers, for years.
Anyone who buys Chinese chickens is an idiot.
I don’t even eat chicken now except a sinful KFC crispy occasionally. That stuff is full of hormones, drugs etc already, what’s the Chinese stuff going to contain.
Wish we could get a true free range 5 or 6lb bird to roast instead of plastic wrapped fryer “parts”. Yuk.
I knew they'd figure out a way to get that virus over here...
When we surrender our food production to communist countries then we are in deep deep trouble! I am putting on my tinfoil hat and suggesting that with all we have seen coming at us it seems as if Conress is not telling us everything! It is like they know that someone or something is holding a gun to our heads and if we do not conform to what ever world policies that are dictated to us then perhaps something bad will happen! America has been sold down the river! Short of a real revolution this crap will not stop untill The United States is no more.
Stand by for the worst outbreak of salmonella in this country’s history.
Allowing the Chinese to poison the American population with the governments, ok. Nice! Anyone out there getting the drift. Our tax moneys going to China to invest in wind turbines built in China by the Chinese to be used in a Texas wind farm, nice. Biden at ribbon cutting ceremony in his HOME STATE OF DELAWARE for a new GM plant opening, why how transparently convienient, why not Michigan? A trillion dollar healthcare bill to cover 2 million of the 395 million people in America, sounds econmically sound, don’t it? I’m just rambling in disbelief! get the hell out and vote!
So selling us filthy seafood is not enough?
I don’t want to put anything in my body that comes from China!
OMG!! CHINESE CHICKEN???? This is DISGUSTING!!
Nope....never never never going to eat anything imported from China.
I’ve called the toll free number on packages while I am in the grocery store to be sure what I am buying did not originate in China.
Chickens are OK, but a tariff on Chinese tires? The problem is the chickens need to unionize.
