Look, I'm as American as the next guy but I think I've finally reached my fill of stuff from China. I inadvertantly bought garlic at Sam's Club that was grown in China. What?
I'm as red blooded as the next guy--I have some Chinese tools, drive a Japanese truck and and carry an Italian jack knife. But Chinese garlic? Is there no end to this? I mean, how can garlic grown and packed there and shipped all the way over here in containers and unloaded by longshoreman and trucked and distributed with semi rigs even dare to compete with the price of American garlic? Who's on first?
It's good looking and all and looks just fine but at what price success?
Here's the proof. Read it and weep.
