Every piece of packaged food likely has a component from China.
I am NOT saying your grocery store shelves are going to empty...but where do you think frozen food bags are from? Or the styrofoam plates for your meat?
The world is interconnected in ways the average person cannot imagine. It’s not all falling apart. Not at all.
But to suggest that everything is going to be just fine is as dangerous as saying the world is ending.
The world is the world. Nothing written here is going to change what happens. Wash our hands, but a can of beans, and relax. Set expectations that are realistic. That prevents surprises and reactions.
i have been wondering if we can figure out what precooked chikin brands are those that are exporting US chikins to china for processing and something (who knows what origin) is being shipped back labeled product of USA?
those brands should be running out at some point.
“I am NOT saying your grocery store shelves are going to empty...but where do you think frozen food bags are from? Or the styrofoam plates for your meat?”
...or the machinery to package them, or the controllers for that machinery?
Most printed bags are made here. Too expensive to ship. Foam plates are an airball, real costly to ship overseas. I’m not saying they couldn’t, but doesn’t make sense.
