(NaturalNews) The Chinese food contamination freak show is back in full
swing with new reports out of Singapore indicating that certain Chinese
companies are now mass producing and selling fake rice to unwitting
villagers. According to a report in the Korean-language Weekly Hong Kong,
the manufacturers are blending potatoes, sweet potatoes, and plastic
