Never buy products from China. I bought Tilapia and opened it before I read it was from China. I cooked some and got sick thinking of eating it. I threw the whole package out. I would not even allow my hens to have it. <br /><br />That is a strange allergy I had not heard of. I wonder if you are allergic to other tree nuts or pine products. For years, I have been saying I was allergic to beef because of the gastric distress it caused me. And, I am allergic to beef, just confirmed by tests.

It is becoming harder than you think. I've noticed some canned goods in my local supermarket that bear the label "Product of China" as well as some fresh produce mostly garlic and ginger. Frozen wild caught salmon- product of China. No thank you to any of it. The last time I checked the garlic was from the USA so I bought a mess of it! It still is strange to me to find tomatoes from Canada in the middle of winter here in NC. They must have some greenhouses up there! Most of the time they are from Mexico. So, I don't eat fresh tomatoes in the winter months. Good quality pine nuts in pesto probably wouldn't affect you if it hasn't before. I think you may have been over indulging in those from China. As other have said, walnuts work just fine in pesto. But, I sure do love pine nuts!!
