I remember being shocked when I found out that some apple juice I had bought was made in China.
You have to be careful with candy also. A lot of it is made in China.
You’re 100% correct on the candy issue. A friend of mine owns a concession stand, and has run into this problem several times. She simply won’t carry certain products anymore, because she refuses to take a chance with Chinese-made candy (melamine, anyone?). Novelty sweets, such as certain Halloween candies, seem to be especially likely to come from China.
Toothpaste too. Name brands.
If you live near a Trader Joe’s, it’s a great place to shop for food. They refuse to buy from China, which is comforting as a consumer.
