A New York company is recalling two kinds of toothpaste that may be on store shelves in Michigan.

The recalled Cavity Fighting Fluoride Toothpaste is identified by the item No. 9112 and the UPC code 8 71290 - 00062 5; Bright Max Toothpaste has the item no. 91111.

Eh what's a little life-threatening poison compared to increased profits? This is so overblown...

A coworker was eating some ‘Asian party mix’ earlier today. She asked if I wanted some. I picked up the container and glanced at the label. Product of China. “No thanks” I said.

Don't worry, the Chinese ministry of commerce has assured me that more than %94 of the air conditioners tested do not emit tear gas while travelling at less than 15 MPH. See? It's all good...

Did Soros plunk down some change in some Chinese car manufacturer?

Liberalism has rotted his brain.

A communist government that doesn’t care if people are poisoned? I’m shocked, utterly shocked.

Thanks for the Ping! Perhaps people will now have a new excuse when going to the dentist for fillings, LOL — “But doc, I was AFRAID to brush my teeth... Hey, that flouride stuff you put in those trays isn’t prepared in China, is it???”

Seriously though, this is absolutely ridiculous. Another unintended consequence of not producing things within the U.S. anymore. We desperately need to reverse this trend if at all possible.

You are so very correct.

I have a hard time, accepting that we do not manufacture what we need, for home or for the battlefield.
