Sure, there's TONS of the stuff that "could be produced" in the good ole USA ...

BUT!
It would COST TOO MUCH to use USA products ...
The Chinese farmers and product baggers work for pennies a day ...
The Chinese "stuff", delivered all the way to the USA, is STILL Cheaper than
that same "stuff" raised or manufactured in the USA.

And the unsafe additives are prolly a lot less expensive in China.
