NY Times article mentions that China is also cracking down on food issues which is good if China wants to rescue the Made in China Label.

This goes back to the big pet food scandal of the wrong labeling on a chemical that killed many pets. And the counterfeit sweeteners in Panama that were used in cough syrup that killed365 mostly children.

Now the Toy District in Los Angeles is suffering because of safety worries about products that are imported with sales down 40%. This indicates the Made In China label is taking some hits, which is understandable with the Lead Paint and other toy scandals I mentioned:

• Boy Scout Badges with Lead Paint
• Update on Lead and Product Safety
• Another Chinese Toy Recall
• Chinese Halloween & Hungry Ghost Festival

And there were a few I have not mentioned - like aquadots, but this is Child friendly blog.
