Some stores now list the "Place of Origin" on their food, especially
produce. I often do not buy them if they are imports. With a few
exceptions, because some foods are not grown in the US. Then too,
knowledge of these countries helps too. For example, Mexico is known
to have very bad water. I see soda imported from Mexico on the store
shelves. Of course soda is mostly water. While I'm sure the water is
filtered and treated, how do I know what still may be in that water,
or what chemicals were added to the water to "make it safe". I'm sure
Mexico health standards are much lower than those in the US. Bottom
line, I just dont buy the stuff. There are plenty soda brands made in
the US and even some smaller local companies that have more variety
than the "Big Two" (Pepsi and Cocacola). I often wonder why they even
bother to sell Mexico soda in the northern parts of the US. Think of
all the shipping involved. Why not just get the syrup from Mexico and
bottle the stuff in the US? It's wasteful shipping that causes us to
pay so much at the gas pump.

What about peppers from New Mexico? Way more radiation was released
there from weapons testing than could be released in the worst case from
these reactors.

You totally are so wrong in many ways. The only product you can get in the
USA at a supermarkt is 'kobe style' and its a cross breed of the Waygu with
(I think it;s angus?) They are trying to trade on the name. You will not
get *real* Kobe beef for less than 100$ for a small plate.
We do not ship this meat as 'kobe' to Japan. We can't.

Then he's wrong yet again. There are no cattle that can be shipped to Japan
live and qualify as 'kobe'.
He's just wrong. We have 'kobe style' (a mix of Waygu cattle and our own,
mostly sperm imported to USA to mix the breeds).

I gave you references. You can choose to ignore them or
provide evidence to the contrary. It's that easy. There are plenty
of 100% Wagyu (genetically from Japan) being raised in the USA and
Australia. No cross-breeding involved.
Even the Kobe beef in Japan raised exclusively in Japan isn't from
Kobe, but raised elsewhere in Japan and finished in Kobe (or not).
There's plenty of info out there on the subject. But just ignore it
and keep insisting you're right and everybody else is wrong. You are
the female Victor of RFC (that's a proper name, not a noun).

I don't think that it would be a big issue to avoid their food. They confirmed its a rumor.

Really. Japan is unlikely to sell contaminated foods to the USA.
We're both highly developed countries. The Japanese are our friends.
We wouldn't try to sell them defective things either because our
relationship is based on a lot of trust.
