Can't get Change.org to register a petition right now. There was an older one that successfully blocked this for a few months but now, it has quietly been opened back up with little fanfare. If I can get one going, I'll post a link.

Lets be honest. If they put a giant sticker on the nuggets case that said "MADE IN CHINA" nobody would even give a crap. They'd just go on eating chicken nuggets. People already throw tons of garbage down their throats. They know so many other things are bad for them but they just don't care. They just keep eating crap after crap. All they care is that they are cheap and taste good. You can already buy better chicken in stores that is local but might cost a slight bit more, people mostly choose the cheaper crappier kind. I mean my God people are already killing themselves with diabetes and heart disease. And keep doing it. Nothing is going to be done about this because they don't care.

Meanwhile, Government is forcing auto makers to some BS MPG standards while 9 Cargo ships create more pollution than all the worlds cars.

And people actually buy the whole "green" movement crap.


Enjoying some pretzel logic with your nuggets, I see.

Can you explain the honey thing. Why do I care if there is no pollen? It doesn't sound any different than buying skim milk. Is skim milk not milk because it has been filtered and heated up?



The chinese are trafficking the honey into the US market at extremely low prices to drive out American producers. This is similar to the rare earth metals market where the Chinese just gave the stuff away, forced the closure of mines, had 99% of the market then started jacking prices.

The removal of pollen from honey means that the origin of the honey in the store can't be verified. It's illegal to import honey from Asia and this is why there's no pollen.

This is what happens when fast-food workers want 15 bucks an hour.

No. This is what happens when fast food is too cheap to even pay $7.00 an hour.
You don't think fast food would LOVE to have no laws at all, and pay workers $2 an hour?
We're not talking pay, we're talking corporate greed.

No doubt this nugget thing is just a test phase.
Next? Every food item on the menu.

Guess McDoanlds might call their new China processed meat thingy in a bun GETTY UP OLD TRIGGER.
Or, BOW WOW RUFF RUFF in a bun.
And God only knows what the bun is made of....
