Ärende: Be Careful What You Eat  
=================================
Bad Food... really bad!!!

This article is written by a 3rd party: Please vet this story for yourself. Do
your own research.
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 and Gwaltney. The same with many chickens. They can now be
shipped there, but when they come back all that needs to be labeled is that
they WERE RAISED IN THE USA. Not that they were processed in China!!! Our great
FDA at work again. The chickens will be all processed and most sold to fast
food restaurants for sandwiches, along with schools and supermarkets. The China
slaughter and processing are not nearly equal to the requirements here.
*BAD FOOD.*
We recently learned that Starkist Tuna is now owned by Korea, and is in big
conflict with the U.S. concerning quality, safety, and records, which Korea
refuses to produce.
Read several articles on Google about this, and even one that was defending the
eating of tilapia 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 ".
Read all the way down...
Recently a Food Inspector on TV said he had lived overseas and he had seen the
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, and 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 and the junk we buy: 
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 poop (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 China and
re-packed here.
Cold-FX is grown and packed in China and is full of fecal bacteria. Doesn't
work anyway, big scam.
If the country of origin is not clearly marked beware.
If produce, ask an employee.
Watch out for packages which state "prepared for", "packed by" or "imported
by". We don't understand the lack of mandatory labeling, especially the
roduce.
The country of origin should be clearly shown on the item in the store.
Go to the local farmers' markets in season 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.
How is it possible to ship food from China cheaper than having it produced in
the U. S. or Canada?
FOR EXAMPLE THE "OUR FAMILY" BRAND OF MANDARIN ORANGES SAYS RIGHT ON THE CAN
'FROM CHINA '. SO, FOR A FEW MORE CENTS, BUY THE LIBERTY BRAND.
*GOLD BRAND OR DOLE IS 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 s -- t .
If you search the internet about what the Chinese feed their fish, you'll be
alarmed: growth hormones, expired antibiotics 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 made in India - just as bad!
Another example is in canned mushrooms. No-Name brand came 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.
Well, duh! Why do you need the government to suspend trading privileges?
SIMPLY DO IT YOURSELF, CANADA AND THE U. S.
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 is 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.
*START NOW and don't stop and tell your friends*.
Send this to everybody you know. Let's show them that we are intelligent, and
NOBODY can take us for granted. *Start reading labels more closely and buy
something else even if it cost a few cents more.*

... An armed populace is the greatest insurance against tyrany.
