today's fun fact

China is now the leading supplier of imported seafood to the US, accounting for 16 percent of all the fish we eat. But the FDA inspects only 2 percent of these imports. Of those it actually inspects, it rejects about 1 in 10 shipments.

I love Leadfish, grilled with some garlic and lemon. The lemon really brings out the lead.

So what they're really saying is that 1.6% of the fish that is eaten in the US is tainted Chinese fish.

Damn liberals and dere fuzzy math. Dese kinda extrapolations based on small sample sizes are the exact kinda scare tactics used by da neo-cons. Don't stoop down to dere level.

Thanks Fung I forgot about small sample sizes. It could be much larger than 1.6%! Bomb Chinese fisheries now! We need to do it for the children! If we don't do it the terrorists have won!!
