China's manufacturing controls have caused alarm around the world-most recently when frozen foods and dairy products were pulled from shelves in Southern China because of melamine contamination.

If you are trying to decrease your oil footprint then you would want to stay clear from purchasing frozen foods (and chewing gum) according to Planet Green, a healthy living website, because the wax layer in frozen food packaging contains petroleum.
Ideally it is best to purchase flash-frozen food products, as the integrity of the food is kept intact.
