Same.  I love Chinese vegetables but I have a feeling they’re doused with chemicals.[/quote]

Because they are “Chinese”? What kind of absurd statement is that? [/quote]

Looks like some of us are educated about air and water quality in China, and the overall state of environmental policies in China, and some are not. -NP[/quote]

The level of casual racism on DCUM by supposedly educated liberals continues to astound me.  Most “chinese” vegetables sold at Hmart are grown in California, not China.  Think about it for 2 seconds - greens can’t be shipped on container ships. Do you really think HMart is air-freighting bok choy from China to sell you at $2/bunch?  On the other hand, a lot of your “organic” produce you find in non-asian grocery stores, especially hardier items and frozen items, are imported from China.  Take some lessons on critical thinking and come back when you can do better. [/quote]

I don’5 know why assume the commenters on this site are all educated liberals. One look at the politics page indicates otherwise. An educated person would not think that a vegetable with a Chinese name has to be grown in China. [/quote]
