I hope “Great Value” isn’t code for Made in China.

I live in NW Washington, where they grow a lot of apples. The local grocery chain, Haggen's, has been very active in keeping WalMart from building a super store here. One of the their reasons was foreign food products.

Surprisingly enough I bought a bottle of Haggen's brand apple juice for the kids. When I got home I noticed that on the bottle it said "Product of China." This from the company based in Washington where there are lots of apples. That stuff went down the drain, not into my kids.

Moral of the story, Evil Wal-Mart isn't the only company getting products from China. Some of the companies bad mouthing Wal-Mart are doing the same thing.

“I hope “Great Value” isn’t code for Made in China.”

We’ll never know. I’ve yet to find a “made in...” label on the food stuffs (one of my per peeves in life), only distributed by wal mart stores.
