Some months ago, rat meat was passed off as strips of lamb in China. Now it’s fox sold as donkey-meat snacks.
And in the middle of the latest Chinese food scare: Wal-Mart.
The retailer said it was recalling “Five Spice” donkey meat sold at its stores in Jinan in eastern China’s Shandong province after authorities indicated that the popular snacks were actually made from fox.
Fox meat is cheaper than donkey. Wal-Mart said DNA tests found that the donkey snacks, a delicacy in some parts of the country, were made from meats of other animals.
