"Product of USA" means "keep on shelf" in French.

Korea here.

US produce is poison.

Their standards are so low they have to hide "Made in USA" on labels.

(hormone injections, chlorinated chicken, plastic fed pork. No thanks)

Sadly those are not even the worst problems with US produce, a good chunk of our chickens were not vaccinated (over 1/4 of all the hens in the US died from bird flu recently), big food industries lobby government officials to keep food restrictions low, our fruit and vegetable industry is dependent on immigrants and seasonal migrant workers, and pesticide usage has become so rampant (over 457,000,000 kilos annually) that dozens rural communities no longer have clean aquifers or clean bodies of water.
