If you're seeing headlines about how China is "switching back to US soybeans" after Brazil's turned out to be contaminated
LOL no. It's like 5 facilities and 69K tons of soybeans.
Out of ~2,000 facilities and ~100M tons of beans shipped from Brazil to china.
It wasn't even the soybeans that had the problem.
The cargo ships that carried the soybeans had OTHER cargo holds with wheat in them. The wheat had pesticide levels that were too high.
So the grain terminals that filled those ships have to clean up before their shipments can be accepted in China.
So is it safe to say then the only reason why they decided to purchase soy beans is because the alternative that they chosen, even a slightly higher price in Brazil, is temporarily unavailable and they are making a practical purchase.

There is a reason we have the FDA and regulations. Safe Food!!!
I often wonder if my wheat issues are more related to pesticides. In particular ones banned by the EU. If the food is EU safe, I can eat it.
