Re: That’s me a vegetarian

I was reading the other day that the American Agricultural committee or society or whatever want our Government to remove the "Product of .... " labelling from food packaging because they say it's a restrictive practise. Well, if it wasn't for the good ol' US of A, back in 1900, or thereabouts, absolutely nothing would be labelled with its country of origin. US manufacturers lobbied Congress back then to have all manufactured products labelled with their country of origin as a protectionist measure. Now it seems this doesn't suit them any more.

Because they are afraid of losing profits if we don't buy their junk!
