Subject: RE: BS: Chicken from SE Asia
Yes indeed, gnu, there are labeling laws in most countries and ways around where the product actually comes from.

An example: Some fish that is caught in one country, sent to China for processing. So, where would you expect it to be labeled as a product of?

This is the puzzle that some encounter when boycotong products of a country. Spain used to have a ban on importing Canadian fish (in retaliation for Canada not giving them access to ports for refueling fishing boats operating just outside Canads's 200 mile zone). What the Spanish importers did not know is the fish they imported from other countries was actually Canadian fish sent through those countries.
