*I CONSIDER THIS VERY IMPORTANT AND AGREE THAT ALL OF US NEED TO BE
AWARE OF WHAT WE ARE EXPOSED TO WITH REGARD TO OUR FOOD. *
* Smithfield Farms, the largest pork producing farm in the
USA was sold in September to China with the unanimous support of its
stockholders. The hogs will still be raised here, but slaughtered and
packaged for sale **there** before being sent back here. This includes
labels: of Morrell, Eckrich, Krakus, Cudahy, Premium Hams, Cook's,
Gwaltney. The same is true with chickens under these labels. They can now
be shipped there, but when they come back all that needs to be on the
label is that they… WERE RAISED IN THE USA. Not that they were processed
in China. Our great FDA at work. The chickens under these labels will
all be processed and most sold to fast food restaurants, schools and
supermarkets. The China slaughter and processing requirements are, for the
most part, unregulated and far inferior to requirements of the U.S.A.*
* We recently learned that Starkist Tuna is now owned by Korea and
is in conflict with the U. S. concerning quality, safety, and records
keeping, which Korea refuses to produce.*
* I read several articles on Google about this, and even one that
was defending the eating of tilapia fish said to avoid the fish that came
from China. Also, I had just returned home from buying Albertson's 4-day
special of 4 bags of frozen tilapia for the price of one. Sure enough, on
the top of the bags it read "farm raised", and on the bottom, in small
print, it said:" China.*
* Recently, on TV, a Food inspector said he had lived overseas and
he had seenthe filthy conditions their foods are raised and processed in.
It is enough to make you throw-up. Some foreign workers have to wear masks
as they work in these places because the food is so rotten and filthy, it
makes them want to throw up. Many of their fish on Fish Farms are fed raw
sewage daily. He said he has seen so much filth throughout their food
growing and processing that he would "never" eat any of it. They raise this
filth, put some food coloring and some flavorings on it, then they ship it
to the USA & Canada for YOU to consume and feed to YOUR families. They have
no Food & Safety Inspectors. They ship it to you to buy and poison your
families and friends.*
* Imported food we eat is junk :*
* Green Giant frozen vegetables are from China, and so are most of
Europe’s Best. Arctic Gardens are Okay. So is Birdseye.*
* Never buy the grocery store garlic unless it is clearly marked
from USA or Canada, the other stuff is grown in people’s… dung (even worse
than chicken poop).China is the largest producer of garlic in the world; U.
S. is next.*
* Buy only local honey, much honey is shipped in huge containers
from Chinaand packaged here.*
* Cold-FX is grown and **packed* *in China and is full of fecal
bacteria. Doesn't work anyway; it is a big scam.*
* If the country of origin on a product is not clearly marked
“beware.” If the product is produce, ask an employee.*
* Watch out for packages which state "prepared for," "packed by"
or "imported by" or "distributed by." We advocate mandatory labeling,
especially the produce.*
* The country of origin should be clearly shown on the item in the
store.*
* Go to the local farmers' markets in season for your produce and
keep a wary eye open the rest of the year.*
* Please read this very carefully, and read to the very bottom.
It's important for all of us.*
* The above facts indicate how is it possible to ship food from
China cheaper than having it produced in the U. S. or Canada.*
* PLEASE NOTE--THE "OUR FAMILY" BRAND OF MANDARIN ORANGES SAYS
RIGHT ON THE CAN 'FROM CHINA'. SO, FOR A FEW MORE CENTS, BUY THELIBERTY
BRAND. GOLD BRAND OR DOLE ARE FROM CALIFORNIA.*
* Beware, Costco sells canned peaches and pears in a plastic jar
that come from China.*
* ALL "HIGH LINER" AND MOST OTHER FROZEN FISH PRODUCTS COME FROM
CHINA OR INDONESIA. THE PACKAGE MAY SAY "PACIFIC SALMON" ON THE FRONT, BUT
LOOK FOR THE SMALL PRINT. MOST OF THESE PRODUCTS COME FROM FISH FARMS IN
THE ORIENT WHERE THERE ARE NO REGULATIONS ON WHAT IS FED TO THESE FISH.*
* Recently The Montreal Gazette had an article by the Canadian
Government on **how Chinese feed the fish**: They suspend chicken wire
crates over the fish ponds, and the fish feed on chicken dung.*
* If you search the Internet about what the Chinese feed their
fish, you'll be alarmed; e. g, growth hormones, expired anti-biotic from
humans. Never buy any type of fish or shellfish that comes from these
countries: Vietnam, China, Philippines.*
* Check this out personally. Steinfeld's Pickles* *are produced
in India - just as bad!*
* Another example is canned mushrooms. No-Name brand comes from
Indonesia…*
* Also check those little fruit cups. They used to be made in
Canada, in the Niagara region, until about 2 years ago. They are now
packaged in China. Most sold in Aldi stores.*
* While the Chinese export inferior and even toxic products,
dangerous toys, and goods to be sold in North American markets, the media
wrings its hands! Yet, 70% of North Americans believe that the trading
privileges afforded to the Chinese should be suspended.*
* Why do we need the government to suspend trading
privileges? THIS IS A YOURSELF PROJECT.*
* Simply look on the bottom of every product you buy, and if it
says 'Made in China' or 'PRC' (and that now includes Hong Kong), simply
choose another product or none at all. You will be amazed at how dependent
you are on Chinese products, and you will be equally amazed at what you can
do without.*
* THINK ABOUT THIS:*
* If 200 million North Americans refuse to buy just $20 each of
Chinese goods, that's a billion dollar trade imbalance resolved in our
favor... fast! The downside? Some Canadian/American businesses will feel a
temporary pinch from having foreign stockpiles of inventory.*
* Just one month of trading losses will hit the Chinese for 8% of
their North American exports. Then they will at least have to ask
themselves if the benefits of their arrogance and lawlessness are worth it.*
* Share with your friends. Start reading labels more closely and
buy something else even if it cost a few cents more...*
