Country of Origin Labels: 92 percent want them

Here's an interesting article about food labeling.

According to Consumer Reports, "U.S. consumers overwhelmingly support stricter food labeling laws, with 92 percent of Americans wanting to know which country produced the food they are buying".

The article also quotes Democratic Sen. Charles Schumer of New York: “It is increased oversight and serious inspections (that) will move us in the right direction”.

A typical politician's response; I'll look after you, I'll take care of everything, just as long as you gimme more inspectors, more money, more, more, more.

Personally, I'm never going to trust any inspection system to catch every problem in the enormous tidal wave of Chinese products! The answer is much more simple. Tell me what's in the products I buy. I'll take it from there.
