You do know corporations now are sending frozen critters to china to be processed then sent back to the USA.

You enjoy eating food that has been sent from the USA via ship to china, cut up into consumer sizes, shipped back to the USA via ship, then sold in your local store as USA Quality Food.

and they don't have to disclose that either.
