Heads up... Another article about tainted Chinese goods. It's becoming quite an exercise to avoid Chinese crap while shopping; the stuff is everywhere-- 'Top Care' products, for instance, at the pharmacy: from China and packaged to look like trusted brands (and on the shelf right next to them!).

I found an "organic" canned tomato product at the store labeled 'Full Circle' that I'm very suspicious of. All the other tomato products say 'Product of USA' or "Product of Italy,' etc. 'Full Circle' says nothing except that it's imported... Wish there were a website we could go to that would tell us where all this crap is coming from.

There are reports that the chinese are making fake rice with plastic filler.

But I thought collectivism meant clean air, clean water, and perfectly safe products?

At least that is what the libs tell us, right?

[JRandomFreeper]

I figure that as 1.92e^11 servings of rice, using 2oz (uncooked) as a standard serving. That's a lot of meals to miss.

That’s fine. There is plenty of white long grain rice grown right here in the US, mainly in Texas and Louisiana. Don’t buy Chinese rice and you directly aid the US economy.

Never, never, never, NEVER buy food from the ChiComs. If it doesn’t say, ASSUME it is from China.

Get your food locally - best from a farmer’s market or even better if you grow it yourself. If you don’t know where a food product is from, choose something else. It’s important for your health, but also helps keep American dollars in America.

Fred Meyer stores I fear are doing this....some of their own brand juices, usually much cheaper, don't specifically say where they are produced....

we should start a thread about what IS made in America...

surprisingly, I don't think Carharts are, nor much of Cabelas stuff.....

Soon to be on sale at a Walmart near you!

Its the Cadmium.

Even food being mfg in the US is using raw materials from China.

When a company chooses to save a penny by buying from China, they better make sure these are untainted. I have my doubts with the volume of trade and distributors not clearly indicating the country of origin that these issues will spread.

No worries for them... it will end up in the states.

Recent studies indicate however, that typical American diet contains insufficient quantities of iron!

[crazydad]

What is Chinese Heavy Metal? Metarrica, Rudis Preest?

[Revolting cat!]

Evidently, they even mix in dog meat into their Rice-E-Roni!

[Cheetahcat]

well what you do not eat can be used in a electro plating shop.

[Revolting cat!]

And since the Chinese cannot differentiate between teh "R" and "L", you know what else is in their so-called "rice"!

[FormerACLUmember]

Chinese “food” and “medicine” should be considered toxic waste.

[org.whodat]

But look at the bright side, glow in the dark Chinese cuts down on carbon from producing electricity for lights. Now does that not give you a warm glow.

Cadmium poisoning is nasty business. The article mentions itai-itai disease in Japan (pain-pain). I’ve read about cases where certain Japanese women lost so much bone strength due to cadmium poisoning that their vertebrae began to collapse under the weight of their own spine. One woman eventually “shrank” something like 8 or 9 inches.

China. It’s not ready for prime time.
