There has been a recall on jewelry.
Don't know if you mentioned the tires.
Shipping fake medicine.

It's not just us!

A chain of Dutch bed stores said on Friday it was recalling more than 1,300 Chinese-made foam mattresses amid fears they were sprayed with toxic insecticide. Beter Bed Holding announced... found they contained poison, possibly as a result of being sprayed to kill insects in wooden packaging.

MAKASSAR (Antara): The Chinese Embassy has denied that 49 formaldehyde-tainted sweets as announced by the Indonesian Food and Drug Supervisory Agency (BPOM) ...

Dixie, I remember the jewelry. I cant find that one. You are Welcome to add it in. That was children's jewelry if I remember correct. I am putting the children's stories at the top of the list and the other stories after them.

I am new, so if this question has been asked already and I've missed it, I'm sorry. But, I'm just wondering if anyone else besides me believe that all these problems with Chinese products are "just accidental" or maybe they have an agenda? Sorry if I sound like a conspiricy therorist, but, sometimes I do feel like there are sinister conspiricies out there.

Welcome chickasaw!

You are not alone in wondering. There are a lot of people who have asked the same question. I knew they had shoddy environmental standards but now with all of the recalls blarring in the face it seems like there may be something to the question.

Just checked my favorite coffee mugs. Yep...they are made in China. If they contain lead, I'm probably turning into a lead pipe!

These are the coffee mugs I use. http://www.anchorhocking.com/products.asp Made in the USA and no LEAD. You might actually find them in Walmart.

Yes it does, I was going to sell it on my site but it became too complicated. I buy all of my bakeware and drinkware from them. It is very sturdy and free from chemicals.
