Kb27 Supersonic January 16, 2017 Share January 16, 2017 In Singapore, I read that we test only about 5% of food we import for suitability for human consumption. What about the 95% .......... 95% is for you and me to find out. ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbie26 Hypersonic January 16, 2017 Share January 16, 2017 Random checks, so random findings, all by chance and we have to depend on chance maybe the best way is not to stay with 1 brand for too long, rotate around bec duration of exposure is more important than once off contact In Singapore, I read that we test only about 5% of food we import for suitability for human consumption.

Count-Bracula Twincharged January 17, 2017 Share January 17, 2017 My office ah tiong bu keeps buying foodstuff from China and gives out to almost everyone when she comes back from shandong. Once she bought packets of mongolia milk packed by mengniu. All the foodstuff will inadvertably end up in the trash, no one dares to consume. Scary!

Chicken stock cubes. All mic. I saw this very cute cultured milk drink at ntuc last week. Its like yakult bottles with doraemon wrapping. Almost wanted to buy for my kid. Then saw its from China lol.

Then saw its from China lol. yeah, but i always read the labels before buying. We even have China pork meat found in our wet markets. cheapest among all pork meat. I dont take any ready to eat seasoning or stock. Hardly any fermented products too, except for some salted vegetables, which i think should be locally made or from malaysia. but we need to be abit more realistic. Eat at home, we can control the ingredients. But if we eat outside, we have no control, And i suspect alot of stalls or atas resturants are using Made in china food products, for the cheapest cost. Even Skippy Peanut Butter is made in China. I dont buy this. I buy PeterPan brand, Made in USA, at the same price!! luncheon meat .... china china china who do not eat luncheon meat only god knows how they produce luncheon meat with what's not mixes and grind grind grind CNY is coming ... a lot of goodies sold in supermarket are MIC I dont eat any luncheon meat. Who say everyone eat luncheon meat? Talking about luncheon meat, its good for everyone here to know that we have local made luncheon meat. yes, its made in Singapore. But i can't remember the brand.

Can buy from NTUC or other supermarkets. Everything I buy, I read the labels. No point in being too paranoid. Just avoid when possible. Almost all Chinese herbs or Tcm herbs come from China. Just try to avoid milk, meat and fish from China lor. Vegetables also bit difficult. Some still come from China. Example 奶白。the Sg hydroponics one taste is no good lol. see lah... never read labels.... its ok, u r still alive and kicking Yes, best to avoid all processed meat, including those gourmet high class ham...... all contains high levels of salt and chemicals. Nah. If u want to eat. Only eat the sibei Tok gong taste one lol. Then worth it. Haha. Like my ham for Xmas. That's really ham heaven. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prime supermarket has a farm agri farm in china, students who visit china will probably been to their farm. Singapore get veg and pork (small % of total consumption here) from them under a strict control i believe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
