And if you plan on eating a Double Down and you haven't already seen this infamous expose then maybe you'll think twice....
This is from a chain e-mail my uncle sent me, still gross!
WATCH WHAT YOU BUY
ESPECIALLY HIGHLINER FISH PRODUCTS; all come from China , even though the box says ' product of Canada ', it is from China and'processed' in Canada , that is, the coating is added and packaged in Canada only! The fish are raised in pens using chemicals that are banned here in Canada as cancer causing but legal in China . This was exposed on CBC TV's Marketplace .
This one will make you think before buying anything from China .
Well, are you enjoying seeing Chinese food popping up in your supermarket left and right? Have you noticed you can't buy a single package of fish that isn't made in China (or Vietnam )? Do you think your food from China is processed in a sanitary manner, and thus safe to eat? Take a look at this!!
THINK ABOUT IT. These undercover enclosed pictures speak a thousand words. Avoid buying all processed food packaged in China. Anything goes! We just don't know what else is in those packages. Unlike in the US And CANADA , China does not have laws regulating food processing.
Basically, do not buy any processed food from China , also Hong Kong , too. MANY companies are using a Hong Kong address to avoid this type of image reputation.
Early dawn, starts the day by riding around to collect dead chickens.
Asking around for dead chickens.
Total of 5 riders are hired by the boss to ride to farms to buy dead chickens.
A dead chicken cost 1 RMB and would be sold at 9 RMB after processing.
Storage for the dead chickens in the court yard.
Carcasses are thrown everywhere.
And on the floor....
Four employees start de-feathering the dead fowl after soaking in boiling water from a rusty wok.
Enduring the pungent odor, but sometime,
it gets so terrible that even the most experienced of the workers would puke.
Workers rushing to get the chickens de-feathered.
A discarded bath tub being used to soak the bare skin dead chickens....The contaminated water would have accelerated the decomposition process.
Wearing slippers walking among the chickens before the coloring processing.
After the color dye, its creepy to find that they are quite tenderized.
And now presenting the mouth watering Charcoal Roasted Chicken!
YUUUUUUUUMMM. Ugh. NOT. Barforoni.
Crafty businessmen know that consumers do not prefer products 'made in china', so they don't show from which country it is made.

Disgusting. Can't say it's much better than the exposes I've seen on the meat industry in general. Considering the astronomical number of farms, and the limited workers, the FDA is somewhat of a formality. I think the threat of inspection does keep some companies under wraps, but others seem to risk it.
To anyone who wants to eat more healthily- I recommended at least eating less meat, or better yet altogether eliminate it.
