People here will complain about chicken being processed in China. They
think there's something not quite right with that. It sounds a little
goofy to me too but it's all about food on the cheap. I think it's a
great idea myself - now we can get Chinese chicken without even going to
a Chinese restaurant.

Generally speaking though - people will complain about most anything in
this group. It's their nature. :-)
