What's outrageous is that the produce is stuff that is grown in the U.S. such as spinach and "California Mix".<br /><br />In addition, organic food purveyors like Woodstock Farms are also selling food grown in China...Woodstock Farms has this written on their packages:<br /><br />"Supporting small farmers and the local economy everywhere".<br /><br />Beware of QAI or Quality Assurance International. They are a group of 'certifiers' that hires locals to 'allegedly certify that produce is grown to strict organic standards as to soil quality, no pesticides, handling, storage etc. Corruption in China?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815867514277794362.post-27951706626967227802011-02-18T02:36:09.530+11:002011-02-18T02:36:09.530+11:00Cannot leave out the tainted milk scandals from 20...Cannot leave out the tainted milk scandals from 2008. CNN wrote about it <a title="here" href="http://articles.cnn.com/2008-09-15/world/china.formula_1_milk-powder-sanlu-group-dairy-producers?_s=PM:WORLD" rel="nofollow">link</a> and Time did as well, <a title="here" href="http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1844750,00.html" rel="nofollow">link</a>.<br /><br />This scandal caused US listed Chinese reverse-merger darling <b>Synutra</b> (<b>SYUT</b> fka <b>VVIN</b> fka <b>VUSPF</b> fka <b>VLSH</b> fka <b>BITK</b> fka <b>APEH</b>!) to plummet from $50 to $10 in a few short days.<br /><br />More disturbing, however, is that a few months ago the Chinese government jailed one of the activists who brought the scandal to the world's attention. The BBC reports <a title="that" href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-pacific-11724323" rel="nofollow">link</a>:<br /><br /><i>"A Chinese activist who campaigned for compensation for victims of a 2008 contaminated baby milk scandal has been jailed for two-and-a-half years.<br /><br />Zhao Lianhai, whose child was among the 300,000 made ill by the milk, was convicted of inciting social disorder.<br /><br />Mr Zhao founded a website to provide information for parents after it was found milk formula had been laced with the industrial chemical melamine to give it a high protein-content reading. At least six babies died."</i><br /><br />Not surprised in the least that a Chinese company would do such a thing, and not surprised the PRC government would jail the whistleblower.<br /><br />What I am surprised about is the appetite for these companies among Westerners. When will they open their eyes?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815867514277794362.post-57783860922824794402011-02-18T02:23:06.818+11:002011-02-18T02:23:06.818+11:00" ... doubt that will be constructive."

Kind of like what's happening with Wall Street.<br /><br />Apparently, the "authorities" (FDA) are investigating the case.<br />http://hcrenewal.blogspot.com/2009/08/who-investigated-case-of-deadly.html<br /><br />Of course, the same authorities were much more "effective" when some US doctors tried to help some US women reimporting US made IUDs from Canada.<br />http://hcrenewal.blogspot.com/2010/07/prosecuting-doctors-for-importing-iuds.html<br /><br />That goes to show you where are the priorities of this so-called "civilized society" of ours.<br /><br />Yet, we were told that unrestricted trade was good for us. Furthermore, regulations and inspections are bad!<br /><br />If one could be guaranteed not to be a victim as in the heparin case above, that'd be true.
