Made in China

It used to be that one has to go to Chinatown to find products made in China. But now they are everywhere. Just go down to your neighborhood Walmart. I bet you most of the stuff you will find there are made in China. But as the number of Chinese products grows, so does the list of tainted, defective, and counterfeit Chinese products that could pose health and/or safety risks. The latest to join that list is farmed seafood, which has been banned by the FDA. Speaking of counterfeit products, have you ever heard about the counterfeit eggs that were made in China? Apparently, they look so real that people can't tell the fake ones from the real ones. Here's a link with pictures. I wonder if there is anything that the Chinese won't counterfeit.
