“Made in” can be a “tricky” term.
In the 1990s parts would be manufactured in China or elsewhere and assembled in the US so they could label it “Made in the USA”.
There were even stipulations of how much of the work could be done abroad (at what point is it a ‘computer’).
Same with foreign born livestock raised and slaughtered in the US.
same with our prescription medicines....
I was told many many have foreign components & if not actually manufactured in a foreign country....is essentially foreign made & sent here to be labled or bottled.
True but the labeling should be clear. We all know a “Made in USA” item will have foreign components. We also know that an unlabeled leg of lamb may be from New Zealand, but it may also be from a country we would not trust. I’m not a fan or most import/export restrictions, but I’m a big fan of providing consumer information (although not the network of nutrition labels at restaurants - no one orders from Cheesecake Factory thinking it’s health food!).
