US made pizza recalled due to E. coli - maybe China should boycott all US made pizzas |

Totino's and Jeno's pizza recalled due to E. coli
CHICAGO (Reuters) - Almost five million Totino's and Jeno's frozen
pizzas with pepperoni toppings are being recalled because the
pepperoni may be contaminated with E. coli, General Mills Inc said on
Thursday.
General Mills, which owns the Totino's and Jeno's brands, said the
recall affects about 414,000 cases of pizza products currently in
stores and all similar pizza products that might be in consumers'
freezers. Each case contains 12 pizzas.
The possible E. coli contamination was uncovered by state and federal
authorities investigating 21 E. coli-related illnesses in 10 states.
General Mills said nine of the 21 people reported having eaten
Totino's or Jeno's pizza with pepperoni topping at some point before
becoming ill.
The people became ill between July 20 and October 10, the USDA's Food
Safety and Inspection Service said, adding that all the patients
recovered.
The people did not have packages with dates codes or other information
General Mills needs to narrow down which pizzas might be affected,
General Mills spokesman Tom Forsythe said, adding that, for the same
reason, the company could not determine which of its suppliers
provided the pepperoni.
E.coli O157:H7 is a potentially deadly bacteria that can cause bloody
diarrhea and dehydration. The very young, seniors and persons with
compromised immune systems are the most vulnerable to food borne
disease.
The recall includes eight types of Totino's brand frozen pizza and
three types of Jeno's brand frozen pizza with pepperoni topping, or
pepperoni in combination with other toppings.
The frozen pizzas were produced in its Wellston, Ohio, plant and
distributed throughout the United States. The plant is currently
making other pizzas, but not with pepperoni, General Mills spokesman
Tom Forsythe said.

You get the message: US made products may be just as bad as Chinese
manufactured ones: So many products may be tainted with E-coli like
last fall's lettuce. Protectionism can go both ways. I'd rather not
have Pelosi and her protectionist congress dumping on China just
because their own consumers prefer Chinese stuff to their own
industry. The US should fix their own trade deficit rather than
picking on China in vain.

Stinky tofu is one thing that I experienced in Taiwan that I tried but
couldn't handle. I was at a street market in Taipei and smelled the
most horrible odor. I thought there were health problems. My Chinese
friend said "That's stinky tofu". I tried it. I even try it here in
the US every now and then. Not for me.
I had some OK pizza in Taiwan. I think the chain was called "Pizza
King". They put squid on pizza!

Stinky tofu smells unbearable to most foreigners but it's delicious to
most of Chinese people. In Taiwan, we have developed different ways
of eating stinky tofu, fried (original), steam...
You must have had Tapioca milk tea (see the link for the photo) in
Taiwan, right? I know many foreigners like it too. It's Taiwanese
invention.

I think it's about the most horrible food I've ever encountered. OTOH,
my Chinese friend told me that to many Chinese cheese is (or maybe
used to be) strange and unpleasant. Clearly it's a cultural thing.
When I was in Taiwan we often went to a fantastic sushi place in a
little town near Lung Tan, (the town was pronounced something like
"Dahsi") and there was always a street vendor near the restaurant
selling stinky tofu. My friend would buy some and take it into the
sushi place, where they would give him a plate for it. I would sit as
far away from him as possible ;-) I also found it interesting that the
restaurant didn't mind outside food. That rarely happens in the US.
You must have had Tapioca milk tea (see the link for the photo) in
Taiwan, right? I know many foreigners like it too. It's Taiwanese

Right. I hear it called pearl milk tea. I don't remember if I ever had
it in Taiwan but in the US I drink it all the time. It's very popular
in the San Francisco Bay area. Many shops specialize in it. Some of
them have as many as 50 different kinds!
One of my co-workers was visiting the US from Chile and he thought it
was the best. He bought a 5 pound bag of the pearls and a big box of
straws to take back to Chile. We thought that was pretty funny.

No, I haven't. But nonetheless I'm standing by stinky tofu. It's just
hard to believe something could be more unappetizing than that ;-)

All I can say, is try it. Pay special attention to the slimy, stringy
texture of the mold when it's heated.

Dahsi is famous for dried bean curd (not stinky tofu and no smell
either). Dashi is where CKS and his son CCK were buried.
Yes, it's called "pearl milk tea", in Taiwan, it costs less than $1
per cup.

I didn't know that was the town they were buried in. We actually went
to the CKS burial place once but I guess they were closed and the
guard told us to go away ;-) I say "I guess" because there were no
Chinese speakers in our car at the time so we weren't exactly sure
what the situation was.
If I remember CKS is actually underground and is waiting to be buried
in China when the KMT retakes the mainland ;-)
Yes, it's called "pearl milk tea", in Taiwan, it costs less than $1
per cup.

I think it's about the most horrible food I've ever encountered. OTOH,
my Chinese friend told me that to many Chinese cheese is (or maybe
used to be) strange and unpleasant. Clearly it's a cultural thing.
When I was in Taiwan we often went to a fantastic sushi place in a
little town near Lung Tan, (the town was pronounced something like
"Dahsi") and there was always a street vendor near the restaurant
selling stinky tofu. My friend would buy some and take it into the
sushi place, where they would give him a plate for it. I would sit as
far away from him as possible ;-) I also found it interesting that the
restaurant didn't mind outside food. That rarely happens in the US.
You must have had Tapioca milk tea (see the link for the photo) in
Taiwan, right? I know many foreigners like it too. It's Taiwanese
invention.
Right. I hear it called pearl milk tea. I don't remember if I ever had
it in Taiwan but in the US I drink it all the time. It's very popular
in the San Francisco Bay area. Many shops specialize in it. Some of
them have as many as 50 different kinds!
One of my co-workers was visiting the US from Chile and he thought it
was the best. He bought a 5 pound bag of the pearls and a big box of
straws to take back to Chile. We thought that was pretty funny.

Stinky tofu is one thing that I experienced in Taiwan that I tried but
couldn't handle. I was at a street market in Taipei and smelled the
most horrible odor. I thought there were health problems. My Chinese
friend said "That's stinky tofu". I tried it. I even try it here in
the US every now and then. Not for me.
I had some OK pizza in Taiwan. I think the chain was called "Pizza
King". They put squid on pizza!

It's quite a leap to make that conclusion.
So many products may be tainted with E-coli like
last fall's lettuce. Protectionism can go both ways. I'd rather not
have Pelosi and her protectionist congress dumping on China just
because their own consumers prefer Chinese stuff to their own
industry. The US should fix their own trade deficit rather than
picking on China in vain.
People should focus on what is true, not make it into a China vs. US
battle. The goal here is food safety, not "picking on China". If some
people use this as an excuse to pick on China that is wrong. And if
other people try to dismiss real safety issues by claiming China-
bashing that's wrong too. And potentially very dangerous.- Hide quoted text -

"KMT die-hards here"? Who? I would like to get know them. Haha!
Venning, please update yourself, even the most KMT die-hards do NOT
talk about "Retake China" for years, contrary, KMT has reconciled with
CCP two years ago, a lot of "KMT die-hards" are talking about anti-TI
and pro-China these days.
So please update yourself. Please.. Haha!

By "here", I meant Denmark. There are members of the Taiwanese "trade
delegation" who give speeches to a handful of anti PRC Chinese from Taiwan
and Hong Kong during their meetings, to one of which I attended just to
satisfy my curiosity. Yuk ! O.K., tell me what is wrong with my date/time

Here is the link to KMT chairman Lien Chan visited China two years ago
and held a talk with Hu JT.
"Taiwanese opposition leader Lien Chan's meeting with Chinese
President Hu Jintao wins mixed reviews, with some Taiwanese newspapers
accusing him of a sell-out.
China's state media hail the meeting as a historic step forward, with
a caution that the conflict is far from resolved.
Papers from both sides weigh the impact on the popularity of Taiwanese
President Chen Shui-bian's pro-independence Democratic Progressive
Party (DPP) and Mr Lien's Kuomintang (KMT). "
