Martin,

I read the FAQ's on the StarKist link you provided. They kept name dropping (a not uncommon occurrence from time to time on this forum) the FDA and the EPA but nowhere in the FAQ's did they mention that they were packaged in foreign countries. So,
I clicked on "Contact Us" and sent them an email detailing my concerns about the cleanliness of the packaging and the purity of the product. I will be interested in seeing what they have to say. If they reply, I will post their response here on this thread. Maybe I am just seeing spooks where there are none but I want to know that what I put in my mouth is clean and safe to eat and that there is some regulatory agency at their factory to assure me of this.

Stay tuned. <img src="/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
