An article at Mother Jones titled "The Chinavore's Dilemma" gives us an overview on how the FDA allowed - and keeps allowing - tainted imports from China to enter the US. Pet food, toys, toothpaste, heparin, seafood... and the hits just keep on comin'.
"Indeed, FDA documents scrutinized by Mother Jones show that officials have
long known dangerous products were entering the country. They knew it because
some portion of the tainted, counterfeit, or mislabeled shipments were being
intercepted and tallied in monthly lists that get passed around the agency.
While the same products appear on the lists month after month, agency officials
seldom warn the public until after Americans are hurt or killed."
O snap. Read the full article. With your lights on.
