Avoid anything made in China.
They put lead in the lining of baby bibs and in the paint of Thomas the Tank Engine toys.
They have been poisoning us with crap for years.
Be aware they’re trying to put ‘taiwan’ in some product names.
such as canned “taiwan bubble tea”, you have to read the fine print to make sure it’s not chinese poison
they also put japanese characters on some products, just be vigilant.
You raise a very important point. China doesn’t care if they are exporting dangerous products to us. Perhaps they even prefer it that way.
A number of years ago a Chinese company was caught putting low-formaldehyde labels on flooring that was loaded with formaldehyde. I wonder how many American homes are slowly being contaminated by that flooring.
