China Is Still Trying To Kill Us

China is back at it, still trying to kill us through our food ...

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- Sacramento, CA -- July 29, 2007 -- Dr. Mark Horton, director of the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), today warned consumers not to eat fresh ginger imported from China after the California Department of Pesticide Regulation’s residue monitoring program detected the presence of aldicarb sulfoxide in some batches of imported ginger. Aldicarb sulfoxide is a pesticide that is not approved for use on ginger.

This comes as no surprise... You know, we need to start a Chinese embargo... as it is I now look at EVERYthing I buy... which can be enlightening. This morning I looked to see where the grapes were from, suspecting Chile, and it said "U.S."! I thought "what a shock!"
