Although Robert’s American Gourmet is a “manufacturer” under the law, it is a bit unclear who actually puffed/cooked the Veggie Booty – Ingredients: Corn Meal, Rice, Organic Soy Flour, Rice and/or Sunflower Oil, Spinach, Kale, Cabbage, Carrot, Broccoli, Calcium Carbonate, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Parsley and Sea Salt and a dash of Salmonella Wandsworth.  So far Robert’s American Gourmet has refused to name names.  However, it has been announced that the “spices” came from China and were allegedly contaminated.  A few questions for Robert’s American Gourmet:

1.  Why were you buying spices from China?

2.  Who made the booty?

3.  Where was the booty made?
