Gross!!

Go to this site www.fda.gov then type "China" in the search box.

Click on the "Oasis Refusals China (Mainland) links. You'll come up with lists like this one http://www.fda.gov/ora/oasis/2/ora_oasis_c_cn.html from March 2, 2007.

I'm cleaning out my cabinets tonight. Anything that says "Made in China" is going in the trash.

I'm failing to understand how things that have been in your posession for some time need to be purged because "Refusal Actions by FDA" didn't apply when you purchased them possibly months or years ago?

Because the thought of even bringing such garbage into my house makes my skin crawl.

I never stated that you need to stop supporting China. I was making a simple observation and thought I'd share it.

Mmmmmkkkay? Good.

Hmmm... maybe you'll then not want to purchase any food:

How many insects did you have for breakfast this morning? The answer may surprise you! Despite advances in pest control technology, it is still not possible to exclude all insects from our food supply. Most agricultural products are already contaminated with insects (or insect products) when they are harvested, and still more gain access during storage.
The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has adopted Grade Standards designed to protect American consumers from inferior agricultural products. The standards set legal limits for spoilage or contamination due to insects and other agents. The highest grade is "U.S. No. 1".

In order to qualify as U.S. No. 1 Grade, the commodities listed below cannot exceed the following limits of contamination:

Ketchup -- 30 fruit fly eggs per 100 grams
Canned corn -- 2 insect larvae per 100 grams
Blueberries -- 2 maggots per 100 berries
Peanut butter -- 50 insect fragments per 100 grams
Curry powder -- 100 insect fragments per 100 grams
Wheat -- 1% of grains infested
Sesame seed -- 5% of seeds infested
Coffee -- 10% of beans infested

Have some more ketchup with your fries!

true that! since i know there are tons of little flies in figs, i can't eat them anymore. (if you buy them fresh enough, you can open them up and if you look closely, there are atleast 1 in there. in biology class, we opened up a fresh pack and found 5 to 10 per fig. fucking gross.) if theres bugs anywhere else, don't tell me. i like my food the way it is.
