Every American who places their health first and foremost in their life must read this most recent-damming-revealing testimony from the FDA. Terrorism will take a back seat after learning how our U.S. Government allows it's citizens to knowingly be poisoned by imported food related products from China. This is not new, it has been on-going since the 1980's and our leaders merely look the other way. Political ties are more important than our welfare. In my opinion the U.S. Congressional leaders of this country are collectively the most corrupt witnessed in my 64 years. Obviously it begins at the very top with our president.
Remember, as bad as our Pet Food problem is, it is inspected more often than human food.

John, I was listening to your interview on the Denver radio station this morning 7-30-07 at 4:30 a.m. and the things you said about USDA meat inspection at packing plants or even home owned plants is very wrong. I have sold my farm meat that was fabricated at USDA inspected plants for a long time. A USDA inspector is inspecting meat on site 24-7 if the plant is operating in that manner. In other words no meat gets the USDA tag unless an inspector is on the job as the meat is butchered and hung on the line.
Even those state inspected plants will now have to have a USDA inspector in the future.
Your comments about the "rendering plant" getting the word on inspection and cleaning up might be true in KY, but not in Colorado.
I hope your book has more fact in it than your interview statements.
