CHINA-FREE PRODUCTS: U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission Information (Friend Request)

CHINA-FREE

DEFINITION chi-na-free adj. A term proposed for use on food labels to show that products are not made in China.

CONTEXT In light of recent health and safety scares regarding Chinese-made food and products, a U.S.-based company called Food for Health International has announced plans to put "China-free" stickers on its goods. The subtext: These products won't make you sick or have harmful contaminants like melamine.

USAGE Given recent recalls of items from toys to toothpaste, China-free labeling could catch on, though consumers would do well to remember that not all products from China are tainted and not all tainted products are from China.

1) Find and support American companies that make goods from 100% American products, built by American citizens!

2) Invest in such companies with our dollars, web space, store fronts, blogs, any way possible!

3) Have a central point for networking this information.; September 15, 2007 at 3:29 PM
