It isn’t the hand grenade in chips that’s strange


Rather that French potatoes are sent to China to be made into chips.*

From Hong Kong:

‘Bomb disposal officers called out to defuse explosive after startling discovery in batch of potatoes from France’

Rachel Leung

“Hong Kong police on Saturday defused a wartime grenade at a potato chip factory after the explosive was found among a batch of fresh potatoes imported from France.

“The device was believed to have been buried in a field where trenches were dug in the first world war, and later accidentally uncovered with harvested potatoes, packed and shipped to Hong Kong.



* And the China-made chips are exported to the United States. The US should not import food.
