Cardboard is food in China

If you ever take a trip to Beijing, I suggest not eating the Baozi.

Baozi are a common snack in China, with an outer skin made from wheat or rice flour and a filling of sliced pork. But to cut costs some vendors in China have made the outer skin with cardboard.

"Squares of cardboard picked from the ground are first soaked to a pulp in a plastic basin of caustic soda -- a chemical base commonly used in manufacturing paper and soap -- then chopped into tiny morsels with a cleaver. Fatty pork and powdered seasoning are stirred in."

Yummy! Apparently most people can't taste the difference between the real stuff and cardboard.

China attacks America with poisoned toys

Oh, those tricky communists. First it was deadly cat food from China. Then fish products from China turned out to be dangerous. Now the country known for really big walls and really good take out is sending another deadly export our way.

Mattel, the parent company of Fisher-Price, is now recalling almost one million toys that where made in China that were made with lead paint. I guess those commies are really 50 years behind us if they haven't realized lead paint is a tad bit dangerous for kids.
