Supermarket next to English orchards sells apples from China

Apples imported from China are being sold at a supermarket less than a mile from the orchards of Kent.

The move by Morrisons at a store in the Garden of England has angered shoppers and disappointed growers, who say it flies in the face of demand for local food.

Britain relies on apple imports from southern hemisphere countries such as Australia and New Zealand, and, to a small extent, China, during our summer.

But it is unusual to find the Chinese Fuji apples – which are stored and shipped 5,000 miles to British supermarkets – at this time of the year, when local apples are available.

They are currently on sale at Morrisons in Herne Bay, which is only half a mile from orchards where trees are heavy with fruit.

The Fuji apples were yesterday being promoted via a large display at the front of the store at a price of £1.27 per pound. By contrast, small bags of Kent apples at £1 each had been relegated to the rear.

There is so much food coming into America from China it’s disgusting! We have no idea what they use on it or put into it.

China – plastic rice
China – melamine in milk, chocolate, baby formula
China – poisonous pet food

And that’s just what I can cite of the top of my head….
- Hey Love U,
  
  Let’s not be too picky about the plastic rice….it never molds, it makes burnable poo, which may not seem important now, but just wait till winter okay!
  
  And that melamine milk powder makes great wall patch material if you reduce the amount of water, which may not seem important, but just wait till you have to patch the holes in the bathroom walls that someone made while they were trying to poop out that plastic rice….
  
  Poisonous pet food is beyond low…I mean this is sick, these Chinese people actually eat their pets…probably even their neighbors pets to so why would they ever want to poison their own food…..
  
  Just wait, in Vancouver we get about 25k new immigrants from China every month, this is not a joke, if you ever what to get an idea of just how bad it has gotten here, 10 years ago, the city I live in had about 750k people, and now, we have over 4 million people. The signs are getting printed in Chinese. There are places here that when you enter them, there is nothing that resembles Canada, not one word in English anywhere and the clerks can’t even speak English….
  
  My country is gone, it was sold to the Chinese by our greedy and corrupt politico’s, only a massive genocidal revolution will stop it, and that is not going to happen…..doomed.
Ah Haaaaa!
At last the scam comes out! I have been bitching about this for years, especially in regards to the apple juice sold in most supermarkets. The worst offender is Walmart whose Super Value brand is almost always “concentrate from China” and even Mott’s! I always point this out to other customers when shopping and they look at me like I am crazy, they just don’t give a fock.
I thought those people there had a shortage of food, now they are importing a multitude of food products to the USA?!
There should be plenty of US grown apples. Washington, Pennsylvania, Michigan, etc. have tons of groves and there should never be a shortage of American apples.
Bottom line? Greed!
When i used to Shop at Wal mart before i Wised up, Here in Georgia i noticed the oranges were imported from south Africa. we have Florida Next door!!! How is it More profitable to import from Africa than Florida? Needless today idont Shop at wall-DHS-mart No More!!!
- Slaves that our government claimed to free when in fact the objective was why enslave one race when you can enslave them all. Def a really rich group of well connected white people behind those imports. )o,,,
One should read all labels. I wouldn’t buy most food products from China. I also boycott certain countries, such as Israel. There are barcodes for products from various countries. You can find a list on the Internet.

Also, those little stickers on fruit and vegetables ( PLU’s, or Price Look-Up’s ) tell you if the product is chemically grown, organic or GMO.

For instance, a “regular” banana would be a four-number code, 4011.
An organic banana would be a five-number code, 94011 and a GMO banana would be 84011.
Nine is fine, eight I hate.

If we all buy local foods as much as possible, and products made in our own counties, we can kick Wal-Mart and the slave-made China-crap in the shins. I will buy made in USA products, tools, musical instruments, etc. to support the good folks that bring you well-made items, but no longer buy corn chips and stuff like that, due to all the GMO corn that is produced there. Same goes for fructose/glucose products from anywhere.

When ya go shopping, always read the labels. Every dollar you don’t spend on crap hurts the basTURDs in their wallet, so-to-speak.
- This is true. But, go one step further and start to complain to management. Tell the manager that you don’t want food made in China and that you won’t be shopping there anymore until they get rid of it. Often, food from China comes into the US through Canada. So, watch foods from Canada too. Lot’s of salmon, the kind that ends up on sale, comes from China. If enough of us raise holy hell about it to the managers of these stores, they’ll get rid of it. Bottom line, buy local and save our economy. Screw China!
  - I often complain to store management but I have an ice cube’s chance in hell of making an impact.
    Americans are generally very stupid and apathetic, they don’t care.

  I follow the same rules, I don’t buy anything imported if I can help it, USA is ok but I look at the maker and decide from there.
  
  I do not support any Asian business’s, which is getting v hard here with over 2.5 million “New Canadians from China” arriving in the last 5 years and kicking the shit out of labour….as in a lot of my fellow tradesmen are loosing jobs….big jobs because we can no longer offer labour at the same rates all these new company’s offer……like 30% or less of what we have been charging, as in, we bid labour at 500 per fixture and find out later that the guy that got the job was at 200 per fixture and that included the fixture, and many of the workers are non citizens and don’t even have basic job knowledge or even understand what they are doing…..it is a very very very sick system that has unfolded here.
  
  The only upside is that I am really really good at fixing other peoples fuck ups and make really good money doing it.
  
  When customers ask me to install a product from China, I say no, and suggest that they find a Chinese guy to do it….ofc I get looked at as if I have a Pineapple stuck in my nose, but hey, I tell them how I feel and if that’s a problem for them, well, too fucking bad.
  
  Andy from Vancouver!
I noticed this in Pennsylvania. Gorgio has mushroom farms just a few miles from my house the mushrooms in the Gorgio brand in the stores here are sourced from China and India. Same with applesauce. We’ve got TONS of orchards around here! WTF!
- I picked up a jar of sliced mushrooms at Food Lion (Food Lion Brand) here in Georgia when I got ready to use them it caught my eye MADE IN CHINA what the hell I guess now I am going to have to look for Made in USA when I grocery shop too
- Yep, and apples from Pennsylvania are in my opinion the best in the United States. Tart and sweet and very fresh.
  - Right on just like in the hills of southern central Ohio I to this day hardly find a vedgtable that taste as good as what came from my long gone farm of my grandma`s. A quick run down of the garden of eden they had goin on there. Fruit trees apple, pear, plum and possably peach cant remember for some reason i think the peach treas got a illness. Garden had everything you could think of even down to the septics drainfield run off had a dandy little asparagus patch (which you get your mudboots on and walk with a pair of scissors and a basket snip them off about 2inches from the soil.) a quarter mile private lane fruit trees on one side and totally lined on the other with rasberries and a small blue berry and strawberry patch in the back of the property. After the loss of that property in the family I felt as though I lost the finest connection of heaven on earth I had ever had the blessings to experience….sniff sniff =(
About 5000 mi closer to Japan.
