China Says It’s ‘Too Late’ To Recall Huge Shipment of Turkeys
70 Million Toxic Birds Sent to U.S. Last Week

Officials from a major food exporter in China apologized to American
consumers today for shipping over 70 million poisonous turkeys to the U.S.
early last week, but indicated that it was “too late” for a recall of
their toxic food product.

A spokesman for the Wuhan Food Exportation Company said that while the
company “deeply regretted” the shipment, the error was not discovered
until Friday morning, making a recall of the birds “virtually impossible.”

“It would be problematic to recall such a massive shipment,” the spokesman
said. “Those turkeys were sent to virtually every store in the U.S.”


Hee hee.. you had me going up till this part.......
Sure wouldn't want to see our American cousins deep frying those birds.
