I would not put too much confidence into Chinese food ........remember the baby formula scandal as well as the pet food mess....
I have been advised by far more knowledgeable individuals than I will ever be to completely avoid all foods processed in China, period! There is absolutely no regulation there, as we've learned from various scandals. If I recall correctly, the two men responsible for the baby formula issue were publicly executed because of the number of Chinese babies who died as a result; there didn't appear to be any particular concern about babies out of the country....

All I can say is "holy cow!" (no pun intended). On another thread I had posted info about research into the constantly increasing number of children with "food" allergies. One can criticize the woman in this video as having no scientific background, but what she is addressing is not so much science as life. She is a mother who at first could not understand how her child could be allergic to food, only to learn the contemporary meeting of the word! Clearly it cannot but help the rest of us to understand this too!
