to be on the safe side, you should stay away from anything made in China and just buy American.

Any of the Thomas the Tank Engine toys that are made in China. They are painted with lead-based paint. Go to www.ask.com and enter the question "Recalls from China"

Stay away from all forms of shrimp and other seafood for the next few months, while the FDA tracks this stuf down. Also all flavors of Colgate toothpaste.

Anything that says "made in China" I believe...
no really, toothpaste, I won't eat any food if I know it has come from China, stay away from children's toys made in China (due to recent high levels of lead found in one popular kid's toy). If one toy is affected, how do we know all aren't? It sounds to me like China is not at all interested in the health and safety of the consumer, so my rule of thumb now is to read the manufacture location before I read anything else on the label.

Toothpaste, seafood [including catfish--make sure you eat only American farm-raised], certain children's toys [notably 'Thomas the Tank-Engine] which the Chinese paint with lead-based paint, petfoods on the list maintained by ConAgra...primarily, read labels and be safe!

One might be that Chinese cure for STDs. You know, the rusty little wire you are supposed to heat red hot and then shove up your ****. I think they found out that one isn't real good.
