Food Eaten Yesterday... and where in the world it came from

Cherry Tomatoes from Thailand

Apple Juice from America

Vegetable Pasty from Australia

Mandarin from China

Salmon Steak from Norway

Frozen Vegetables from Australia

Tea from England

Ahh… the wonders of living in a country highly dependant upon importing goods.

For example:

"In 2003, local production[in Hong Kong] accounted for 5% of fresh vegetables, 31% of live poultry, and 23% of live pigs. Everything else was imported."

(note: this isn’t a blog about my eating habits, but it is hopefully the start of some regular, and backdated blogging!)
