Are You Scared of Buying 'Made In China' Food Products?

With so many recent China food problems, especially the poison Dumplings which the authorities are still checking if the pesticides were added in Japan side or China side, are you scared of buying and eating 'Made In China' food stuffs anymore?

For me, even with the high standards of AVA checking, but I am still trying to avoid 'Made In China' food products for now.

I will keep a lookout on the country of manufacture on food products. Usually, I avoid "Made In China" food products.

I scare of being poisoned. So I double check and double check again on the origin of manufacture as well as the expiry date.

I think with our stringent checks from our authorities, I am have confidence on any items that are readily on the shelves be it from China as well.
