After covering toys in lead putting antifreeze in toothpaste killing dogs with poisoned treats poisoning their own infants & children with tainted milk and using arsenic as a pesticide on apples (= ends up in apple juice) you would think people would shy away from FOOD products from China. Amazingly you'd be wrong. Every time I go food shopping there are more food products from China and less options to avoid them. From Chinese fruits to cesspool raised "farm fish" from China its unbelievable. Anyone else read country of origin labels on their food and are disgusted by this??

Why don't you ask your friends in Washington why American companies can manufacture in China and not paying import fee on the stuff they bring in. Bottom line is all about the dollar so if a few babies die. They will settle lawsuit for million dollars and make $150 million in profit. And pay the workers $.50 an hour. Thank you politicians in Washington

Thank you politicians in Washington yes and its ALL the politicians doing this not just the ones on the other guys team. We are to the point now when Congress complaining openly about lead in toys Had China turning around American beef shipments for Mad Cow disease. China tried dumping cheap tires on America to buy entire market. Congress responded with a tariff China cried trade war and slapped a 22% tariff on US built GM cars. We let China get too strong and none of the simple minds in Washington have the backbone or brains to go head to head with them. Stop buying made in Chinese garbage food before they corner that market too and we have no choice.

Over time the labor cost will go up and China will be less competitive. it's already starting to happen as the younger Chinese are looking for a higher quality of life with cell phones, access to social media etc. They might be feeling the effects of the one child poilcy too. It won't change tomorrow but certainly over the next generation. I agree about not trying to buy Chinese. Trying to find a dog treat notmade in China is next to impossible.

The "Dollar Stores" are famous for selling food made in China. Read all the labels.

I stopped buying food from China a while ago. I do not understand why anyone would trust it. Nothing from Mexico either. I will consider buying something from Canada depending on the item. France and Italy also. That's about it.

Dumbest thing any American can believe in 2012: All America's problems are because of the (insert party name here). My party, the (insert other party's name here) are going to fix everything as soon as they have 100% control. Do some research on the good cop/bad cop scam.

We are running out of time. does anyone know how to stop the house from spending our money ? 1)The only person(s) who should be controlling senators are their constituents. Not you (unless it's your senator) and not the president. ALL senators play party politics. If you want control, vote EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM out. You may have to do this several times till they finally understand who they really work for. Unfortunately, this will never happen. 2)Republicans spending Trillions? Yep, they are. So are the 'other guys' Solution? See #1 3) also see #1 4)Tariff's for China? Research what Iceland went through in 2008 when they thumbed their noses at their creditors (China is our #2 Creditor, after our own Federal Reserve). If you can handle what Iceland did, then lets go, Tariffs for everything from China. 5) Yep, time is short 6)Spending our money? The China Boycott from #4 will speed up the coming collapse quite a bit so this problem will fix itself (hyperinflation, collapse, doom & gloom, then eventual recovery)

They make money many ways, some own businesses, none pay taxes. Learn what they do and stop paying taxes.

If you want to know where your meat came from, you won't be happy with the World Trade Organization right now. Late last week, the WTO announced that the United States' country-of-origin labels, which took effect in 2008, discriminate unfairly against foreign meat suppliers such as Mexico and Canada.

China did use mad cow as a lame excuse to lash out at America, but mad cow is no joke. Look up 'prions', scary scary stuff. They're not a virus, not a bacteria, can't be killed because they're not alive. But they turn brains into sponges. Prions
