Should We Be Boycotting Products From Mexico Due To The Swine Flu?

Now that Mexico has sent us another gift called the Swine Flu (as if millions of illegal immigrants and drug gangs wasn’t enough), is it time we start boycotting products from Mexico?
I was in Krogers yesterday buying produce and noticed that much of it was either from the Valley or from Mexico. How hard would it be for the Swine Flu Virus to hitch a ride on produce imported from Mexico? Not that hard I would think. If the Virus is easy enough to catch just by touching a door knob or another object that an infected person has touched, then it’s not that far fetched to think that produce or other products handled by infected people would be contaminated.
I don’t know what you would have done, but I passed on anything imported from Mexico.
Of course our Government would never step up and shut down imported goods from Mexico. So that leaves you and me to protect our Families by being educated as to where your food is coming from. You can choose whatever you want, but for the time being, I’ll stay clear of Mexican restaurants, produce from Mexico and anything else that comes from below the border or where immigrants are known to work at.
You’ll have to decide for yourself if it’s smart to boycott products from Mexico due to the Swine Flu. I’m just giving you some food (no pun intended) for thought.
