Salmonella recall due to tainted seasoning

The recent recall of Veggie Booty snack foods has been apparently traced to tainted seasoning used on those products. Low and behold, the tainted seasoning was imported from China. Surprised?

Chinese food imports just keep on raking up one blunder after another, and this latest salmonella-tainted batch of Chinese imported seasoning is just the latest. The products, so far, have sickened dozens but has not caused any deaths.

So, the next time you buy anything at the grocery store, be sure and ask if it was made with imported Chinese ingredients. Sounds hokey, but it's only your health at stake. The only thing there is that retailers won't have a clue about the brands they carry, right?
