Just long enough for most of us to NEVER buy from these companies again.

Others found that night that Mission foods also has built a plant in China, so both companies saying they were not using Chinese ingredients in their foods, was just a shell game. That was a very informative blog, go to archives and it was on May 17th. Lorna,

And are those chickens grown in the US and sent to China in order to be cooked and sent back??Didn't I read something about that several threads/days ago? Part of the 'you buy our beef,we'll buy your chicken' plot??? Lorna Elaine - “… and that is why USDA had written the rule to import cooked chickens from China!”

One night I stayed up late doing Google searches which proved that Tyson was going into the chicken business in China, and that is why USDA had written the rule to import cooked chickens from China! I didn't just fall off of the turnip truck and am well aware that our govt agencies are corrupt, but for some reason the extent of this awful corruption with no concern for our food supply really got to me that night, and I cried over that because it seemed so hopeless! (((HUGS))) to you Maudigan

Doing something to honor not just my dog, but the many others, people and pets, who suffered in this recall nightmare. I am grateful petconnection has here for me in these weeks of need. Don't even want to think about going through all this without you all here. *crying* Jenny and Elaine, I’m right there with you, never blogged before coming here, broken hearted and lost as to what to do.

Spend enough time at work on PCs. But this is different. I have not lost any of my three cats, but the article brought tears to my eyes. I agree - just how long does a recall need to take? Who will be next? I'm catching up on a couple of days reading - I'm also no activist but this has made me one. Thanks to Gina, Kristie, Itchmo, Howl - and all the bloggers for keeping this story alive. I had chatted on forums but never been a blogger. Spend enough time at work on PCs. But this is different.

I’m catching up on a couple of days reading - I’m also no activist but this has made me one.

I had never blogged before, and I am a technogeezer so I had quite a time learning. :) But this threat to our food supply is consuming a lot of my time! It is so good to see so many others becoming politically active and writing to congress demanding Country Of Origin Labeling and accountability from our agencies. Same with me, VJ.

Never read one before. Ever since this has happened, I spend hours reading everything here. Almost as soon as I get up and late into nights, I continually check the messages. Have even turned down a few events when there has been a tremendous amount of messages just trying to keep up with it all. I, too, never thought I’d be so involved with this blog.
