[QUOTE="emapples, post: 3636007, member: 11752"] Alot of the food and nutrition chemicals comes from China, much of it we don’t even make in the US anymore. Something as basic as Citric Acid they supply 40% of our demand in an average year (this isn’t an average year and you cant get a damn thing shipped here on time or budget) so citric acid has tripled this year. But products like Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate, Ascorbic Acid, Vitamins, amino acids, I dont know the exact number but I’m not sure the U.S. could supply 20% do demand on those products. We seem to have let all of the nasty production process’ move to china. Ace-K, Sucralose, Sodium Sacharin, they dominate those too. It’s not just manufactured products and parts they are a huge part of the food and nutrition supply here in the United States which should scare the hell out of everyone. They make 90% of our fireworks now, I wont even shoot them I mean if you think about it they could taint our fireworks supply with a poison and pathogen they could wipe out every most cities in the US in a single night and we wouldnt know until we start dropping dead the following week.
