Is Cambodia a 'Japanese beef-laundering' hub?

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

wagyu beef is standard quality.

1700 yen 15$USD for 100 grams is not uncomon, tourist here even compliment how "cheap" it is when compared to Kobe beef the creme de la creme of luxury meats.

Don't the Yanks ban it? I watched a program on this a couple of weeks ago, blend it up with fructose and shit.
yes the EU too.
the fake honey is banned in any quantity or concentration- the larger concern is real honey that is contaminated with agricultural chemicals. this is what is used to blend with uncontaminated honey so those chemicals fall within acceptable ( trace ) quantities.
Honey has been diluted with sugar and water for many thousands of years, until weights and measures and seals came in. Even then they still need to check it.
yes, in some countries they even compare pollen profiles to see if they match plants found in the stated production zone before allowing import

Sounds like someone should investigate these fake bees visiting these fake flowers.
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.

The best thing about those is they have detachable faces, for when you become bored with how they look.
