China is not a safe country to get food products from. They lack the ability of quality control.

First they tried to poison our pets. Now they are after our children. Maybe we are watching the wrong countries for the terrorists. Or maybe they just don't care.

"The government warned consumers on Friday to avoid using toothpaste made in China because it may contain a poisonous chemical used in antifreeze.

Out of caution, the Food and Drug Administration said, people should throw away toothpaste with labeling that says it was made in China. The FDA is concerned that these products may contain diethylene glycol."

THAT'S NOT ALL KEEP READING---------------

"Dried apples preserved with a cancer-causing chemical. Frozen catfish laden with banned antibiotics. Scallops and sardines coated with putrefying bacteria. Mushrooms laced with illegal pesticides.

These were among the 107 food imports from China the Food and Drug Administration detained at U.S. ports just last month, agency documents reveal, along with more than 1,000 shipments of tainted Chinese dietary supplements, toxic Chinese cosmetics and counterfeit Chinese medicines."

I would appear that this is a common thing for China. I would like to see them eat this stuff. Maybe if they got sick they would up their controls.

I got my info from doing a search on Google. You can find the same information and more. It's scary how much contaminated consumables are passed into the country every day.
