Yet another reason to hate Walmart

[tastyorange]

The problem is not the apples being from China.
It's not knowing if somehow some toxic chemical got mixed in with the apples or maybe they used the same equipment to mix the apple juice that they used with fertilizer, etc.... whatever!

They do whatever they want in China to cut corners and the government doesn't care.... ok maybe they'll execute a few people they catch now and then to show us they are "cracking down"... and then "harvest" their organs for money.

Whenever our country tried to investigate goings on in Chinese factories after bad food was found, etc... the factory would be suddenly closed and the government would not cooperate with the US.

Thankfully, we never have any problems with American companies! How come no one posted that Wal Mart just reduced their prices on over 15,000 items?

Of course, that is the problem. Who wants any food from China? They don't have any regulations. There is so many imports from China that shouldn't be here. In the past 5 years our government has cut the number of U.S. inspectors by half. So, we have more food and crap coming from China, and only 1 percent is being checked. Hooray for big business! They get to save another buck.

Grow your own fruits and vegetables. I have a 12x10 canning room and I'm set. If you want meat, do some hunting and fishing. What you can't freeze, dehydrate it. Have some deer jerky. Take responsibility for what you feed your family. Hell, pet food is safer than the food designed for human beings, and that's only because the chinese don't know how to make alpo yet. If I don't know where it's from, I ain't fuckin' eatin' it.

Any of y'all have kids, you may want to look into where their toys are coming from.

It's a good read, makes some great points, and has some real keen insights as to why the chain is struggling now:

Got out of my car in the parking lot and looked across at the woman in her car she resembled Bruce Vilanch minus the beard. Then I head towards the entrance and there is a woman with legs four times the size of mine wearing a pair of cut off blue jean shorts with ass cheeks hanging out. I was thinking I didn't even get in yet and almost vomited.

I was forced to visit Wally-World today despite my better judgment and a simple stroll through the parking lot (okay, I was kicking and screaming) caused me to wonder if I met the minimum weight requirement to enter.

LOL!

When the rest of the economy finishes collapsing it will be standing room only there, regardless of weight!
