Are you more careful about buying Chinese products these days?!


Question: Given the recent spate of bad publicity about safety standards in Chinese factories and on Chinese farms, my wife and I are now very careful to not buy Chinese products, esp. produce. We check with grocery stores about the country of origin for every single product now. Sadly, the only grocer who seems to list the country of origin for a lot of their products is Whole Foods. The rest do not mention it, nor do their staff seem to know.

Are you more careful now about not buying Chinese products? What steps have you taken specifically?

Nope. Contrary to all the Media "Hype" about the "defective" products coming out of China these days, considerably LESS THAN ONE PERCENT of them are in any way harm full to anyone who doesn't put EVERYTHING in their mouth. The Chinese have NO INTEREST in losing our Business in this country- & they're making changes to their exports to us as fast as they can... The Golden RULE to buying ANYTHING from ANYONE from ANYWHERE- is to use common sense. And in the Business World- if you choose to buy CHEAP- you GET what you pay for...
