Melamine in Chinese Food Products

[Dan F]

I hate to jump on the "buy local" bandwagon, but it is true... it would be nice if we got most of our food from within our country where we know the food regulations, but certain things have to come from outside sources (avocado and bananas won't grow where I am ).

Now that we are heading towards a reliance on importing and not producing our own consumables, we are basically at the mercy of a foreign country and their regulations and adherence to them (assuming they are even adequate).

Scary to think what we've eaten in our life time that we don't know about...

I agree.^

What you say about bananas and avacados is very true, but buying whole bananas and avacados from other countries is still safer than buying processed foodstuffs.

It sadly comes down to........China cares very little about it's own people!
