6. Chinese Garlic
Aside from mushrooms, the garlic that comes out of China were also found to be tainted. If you happen to have a foul taste in your mouth after eating garlic, chances are, you just ate a piece of the 31% of garlic exported by China to the U.S., tainted garlic rich with all sorts of chemicals that would make rocket scientists blush.
7. Chicken
Who doesn’t love chicken? Unfortunately, China managed to screw that up too. Aside from the fact that China is known for its pesticides, the fact that it is a country where avian influenza and food-borne illnesses are common doesn’t do their chicken any favors.
8. Black Pepper
Black pepper is typically used as spice or seasoning. But if you get your black pepper from China, chances are, you’ll be spicing up your food in an entirely different way because, according to reports, the black pepper that comes from China isn’t actually black pepper but mud. Yes, China is actually selling mud, passing them off as black pepper, which goes to show how they have little disregard for food safety and regulatory systems.
9. Industrial Salt
Industrial salt is unfit for human consumption and can cause both mental and physical issues, hypothyroid problems, and reproductive system disorders.
10. Green Peas
Aside from faking rice, it turns out that China is faking peas too. Made from snow peas, soy beans, and a dose of green dye and sodium metabisulfite, the ”green” peas that come out of China are cancerous and inhibit the human body’s ability to absorb calcium. And just like China’s fake rice, it stays tough and hard when boiled.
