Imported Food

According to USA Today, only 1.3% of the food imported into the U.S. is inspected. Frozen catfish from China, beans from Belgium, jalapenos from Peru, blackberries from Guatemala, baked goods from Canada, India and the Philippines — the list of tainted food detained at the border by the Food and Drug Administration is mind boggling. How can anyone ask the question about whether you should eat imported food, regardless of the price? There is an alternative. Make it clear to your local grocer that you will not buy imported foods. It is a simply reality, if they can't sell it, they won't carry it.
