Aloha Everyone,
We purchased two types of Meusli, Special K, Greek Yogurt, Whole Milk, Plain Soda Crackers and fresh bananas for our breakfast food.Most of these are imported as far away as France. This means we have to carefully read labels and see if they have production dates as well as expiration dates. Not all countries comply to US food safety guidelines.
Dairy products can spoil due to inadequate cold storage on route or after they have reached the Philippines. I recall numerous occasions where supermarkets and grocery chains in the USA notified public of possible cases of salmonella poisoning.
One of the things I am much more cautious than J.J. is what I eat irregardless of where I am dining.
Aloha -- Cathi
