Avoid Chinese-made garbage

I found the Chinese takeaway food in the UK far superior to that made and
sold in China!!!

The USA's history of keeping higher quality products and selling all
factory-rejects overseas is well known. Even more well known is how some
product made by a USA company has been found illegal, carcinogenic, toxic,
or otherwise dangerous to human health or ecosystem destroying, so they
dump the rest of production on unsuspecting overseas markets until it is
gone. This also includes tainted food products recalled by the FDA. Do you
honestly think that all that recalled beef in 2008, 143 million pounds of
it, the largest food-recall in history, was just magically destroyed? I
don't recall even one news agency reporting what happened to that beef. All
USA citizens only cared about it being recalled, not what became of it.
Some USA companies even continue production of these toxic or dangerous
items as long as they can get away with it and have found an overseas
market that will have it. I think it's about time that some other country
does to the USA what the USA has been doing to other countries for over a
century. Then all citizens of the USA are amazed and surprised when, after
all these decades of the USA practicing this as normal business procedures,
it finally happens in return. Then they have the audacity to think of any
country doing this in return as "evil". Any USA citizens got their mirror
handy? You might want to learn how one works.

Here's how much sympathy I have for them, ---(zero)---.

Because its always cold there? Why would you want a cold beverage on a cold
day?

Conspiracy? Evil America? Can you offer some proofs for your allegations?

Authentic Chinese food is much greasier than the 'Westernised' versions
you get outside China.

Which "authentic" Chinese food is that? It's a big country with many
varied cuisines.

Simply because the taste of the best British beers and brewing methods
have been optimised for drinking the beer at room temperature. Do you
also insist that your brandy and red wine be served cold? :-)

As it happens, yes. "Room temperature" is considerably warmer in these days
of reverse-cycle air conditioners, central heating and the like than it was
even a mere century ago, and is too warm at least for red wine. I suspect
it matters less with brandy.

As for "best British beers", I'm reminded of a business trip many years ago
which took me to London. I went to the pub with some colleagues who
persuaded me to try something called "Old Wallop". They raved about it but
at the end of the day it was just warm beer to me, which definition has been
spoiled and should be replaced by one from the fridge at the earliest
opportunity.

That would explain why the US economy is in such a mess.
