HO CHI MINH CITY, Sept. 10 (Xinhua) — Over 1.5 tons of water spinach, a very popular kind of vegetable in Vietnam's Ho Chi Minh city, was soaked in toxic chemicals to make it greener and fresh for a longer period, local media reported Saturday.
The police on Friday found that three households in the city's Cu Chi district soaked water spinach in chemicals which are used to dye cloth or print patterns on clothes, local newspaper Doi Song & Phap Luat (Life and Law) reported.
The households said they have sold around 500 kg of split water spinach a day over the past two years.

It's funny how they can spend time on writing a news article yet don't have time to investigate what chemical they are talking about. I would think if these plants had any chemicals on them they would turn brown , not green.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

But then again, those '' ppl '' , because of their education standards, probably would not know the difference between DDT and a nitrogen or urea based fertilizer , which is used to promote green leaf growth.
