A lady I work with was telling me about this story this morning at work.
She said that the pepperoni used on the Totino's pizza is actually made in
China, and it's the pepperoni that's the problem here.

And you know, it's also interesting that all these stories about
Chinese-made product recalls is coming about as the dollar sinks lower and
lower. It almost sounds like some kind of economic warfare with
China...China, a country which supposedly holds a great portion of our
national debt. How that happened, who knows.
