[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Chinese crap at the grocery store

Posted: 10/3/2011 3:27:44 PM EDT

I do not buy anything made in China if I can help it. I will not buy anything I eat that was grown in China for sure! Was making Calzones this weekend and wanted to put mushrooms inside. As I look at the cans I see Green Giant are a product of China so were a few others. One was from India, great like they are clean there! I did manage to find one brand that I "think" was canned in the USA and bought them.

Anyone else look at the labels before you buy?

Like I said I try, but when it comes to my food I will not buy Chinese produced food as long as I know about it.

Computer is probably not 'fortified' with melamine

I make a SERIOUS effort to avoid buying ANY Chinese product whatsoever.

If I end up doing so, I NEED it and can't find a comparable product that isn't made in China.

And, yes, I do comment about this to the companies that import and sell Chinese product, and make my opinion known to them in no uncertain terms.

China is our up-and-coming enemy. I will not support an enemy.

Just cause it doesn't SAY China, doesn't mean China's not in it.

Buy fresh mushrooms instead of canned. Problem solved. Fresh shrooms aren't going to survive a month in a freighter crossing the Pacific.

Most apple juice and tilapia are from China.

When you get to Hell, pull up the corner and I guarantee you there will be a label that says: Made in China

Didn't want to have to pre cook them, was being a bit lazy.
