Well that was back in the early 1990s and if you scroll down and read this government document it does list a lot of products that they use and are imported from China to this day. It is true that a lot of products have been banned especially since the melamine outbreak in 2007/2008. They still use imported spices and some vegetables and fish, and some other things. Not sure about the noodles and rice and meats anymore, but I am sure if you really want to research you would find the correct information on that too.
So we are all entitled to our own opinions, that was just mine and mainly not just because of the fact that their country has the highest pollution rate in the world which includes their water which is used to grow foods but also I will not support China in anyway until they close down all the dog breeding farms used for human consumption over there and in Viet Nam and parts of Indonesia. A couple of years ago the government closed down a Chinese slaughter house in NYC. There was evidence that they were using stray dogs, and it had been going on for a couple of years. It literally made a lot of people sick. I think that was the cherry on the cake for me. So yes, I don't trust them at all. Not only that but I heard some pretty disgusting stories from that guy that I worked for and he wasn't telling any lies either, since he lived there most of his life before he came here with his family. They have a completely different outlook on life and living things as compared to me and I don't agree with them...JMO http://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/row/RL34080.pdf -------Original Message------- From: Sandra Wheeler Date: 10/10/2012 9:58:54 PM To: Chihuahuas@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [Chihuahuas] Chinese food Excuse me? Food cooked in Chinese restaurants is shipped in from China? I don't think so. My son has worked as a line cook in at least two Chinese restaurants. The ingredients are purchased and cooked here. I shop in an Oriental grocery...most of the ingredients are not shipped from China (yes there are a few...dried fish for instance). I won't buy chicken jerky from China, but I am not so paranoid that I won't eat in a local Chinese restaurant.
