FDA Halts Imports of Farmed Fish From China

I didn't realize how much food we imported from China.  It makes me really consider reading more carefully the lables on food - where does it come from.  I've never had a problem getting things from overseas - I like fresh fruits: hence the produce from Chile, Brazil, the "banana republics," etc.  I don't want farmers to go unemployed nor do I want them exploited.  "Fair trade" is the way to go.

But China?  I thought we only got mandarin oranges from there... not fish!
