Peggy, this is unbelievable. Culture or no culture, why would anyone eat something that was treated with chemicals? To me it is just plain ignorance.

Beth, I have seen when in a couple of take-out places that the food packages come from China. Sometimes even on the sauces and fortune cookies packages it will say from China. Others just say that it was distributed from some where in the US, but doesn't say that it was manufactured  here. Years ago when I worked in a pet shop, it was sold to a Chinese couple that were only here in the US for a couple of years and didn't know a thing about animals at all. They said that their laundry and take-out didn't make it, so they tried a pet shop, much to my distress. It was a horror working for them. No kidding or exaggerating at all, but when fish didn't sell, the owner would cook them outside in the back on a wok!  Even the ones that we told him were being treated with chemicals for head-worm. He didn't care, and said that in China all living things are for food and made me sick when he told us about the things that he had eaten. He also told me and I saw it for myself,  how much food is shipped from China to Chinese restaurants here. Sure our government is suppose to watch it for us, but do they? A lot of the food for the take-outs is actually pre-cooked, frozen and then shipped here to a distributor and then the take-outs just have to stir-fry and season it. You couldn't possible cook all that meat from fresh on a a daily bases and have a dinner ready in 15 minutes for every customer. We know it takes  much longer then that to cook meat. And contrary to belief, they don't stay there all night and cook from fresh, except for the veggies. It is all pre-frozen meats and fish, which is why we can not re-freeze their food without taking  a chance of getting sick.
 
Yes, it makes me angry too, but then their culture doesn't see that they are doing anything more wrong then what we do to our chickens and cattle who are crammed in small cages and lambs who are never able to lay down at our breeding farms.  We use heart-sticks in the shelters  which isn't any less cruel then the way they kill the dogs. Both methods inflict servere pain on the animal, and both methods do not always kill the animal either, many suffer until they do finally die from the pain. Animal abuse is world wide, there is no getting away from it. It is only when people with kind hearts see it for what it really is and advocate it, to teach others just how wrong it really is. Passing the knowledge around can go a long way on the net.

I saw that too Peggy, or at least enough of it to make me sick as well!!
I didn't get to the part where they were knocking them unconscious.
I am a pretty easy going passive person, but when I see stuff like that. I really want too do some physical harm too those that do that to Innocent animals!  Just pisses me off !
I love Chinese food, but make my own! About the only place I eat Chinese food is at PF Changs.. I don't think they are owned by the Chinese people?

Over a year ago, I saw a horrible and disgusting video on the way they beat the dog on the head to knock it unconscious and then skin it alive for people food. Most of them weren't unconscious and bleed to death first. They flatten down the dogs and pile them on top of each other and stuff them that way in small chicken wire cages while they are alive and then ship them off to a slaughter house. There the dogs have to watch other dogs being slaughtered, knowing that they are next. Some can stay in that same cage for days without being able to move at all, to say the least of being given food or water. The slaughter house showed these cages with the dogs stuffed in them from floor to ceiling and rows and rows of them by the thousands. I couldn't watch the whole video....it literally made me sick to my stomach for the whole day and then some.
 
Ever since then, I refuse to eat Chinese food because their meats and products are always imported from China and there is no guarantee that it isn't dog or cat meat. It is also my way of protesting such horrific treatment of pet animals in China and it's Providence's.
 
I hope you will join me in this protest of not eating Chinese food. I hope that one day all the take-out and restaurants here in the States and other countries ban together and show support against such horrible treatment of our cannine friends. Until they stop, I will not show any support for their cruel business's.
 
The above link is NOT graphic, it is a news report explaining their culture and shows a video of the dogs that got saved on a truck. Those dogs were lucky enough to be able to stand up in their jammed crate, where as, many others are not so lucky.
