When I was a kid, the label “Made in Japan” was synonymous with poor quality. Sounds like that mantra now belongs to China. Combine this with their extreme drive for secrecy — to “save face”— and their unfettered inclination to cut corners in order to mass produce, and you have a recipe for disaster. I’d never knowingly consume any product that came from China.

The FDA has tried to help in poisoning cases around the world, but there is only so much it can do.

Great article, thanks.

So in one of these "debates" will anybody ask, "What are you, {candidate}, going to do about toxic crap being imported from China?"

Not holding my breath.

Thanks for posting. I paraphrased this yesterday and sent it out to my address list. When you do this, cite the NYT as your source, because people want to know.
