We need a foolproof way to determine if an item advertised online is manufactured in or shipped from China.
For the second time this month, I've ordered an item online after doing what I thought was due diligence to avoid buying Chinese-manufactured or Chinese-shipped goods. One ad actually said the item (seeds) were coming from Australia.
Nope, they both came via "China Post".
This is something I think would be an appropriate use of government assistance.
I agree we need some way to identify all consumer goods clearly. No more distributed by or manufactured by, just a clear, concise made in label with serious ramifications for lying. You can search all day when it says distributed by and never get to the bottom of anything. As a result, we only by the products and food that declares themselves clearly. In addition, if food is from Australia, Canada, Italy, or any country being overrun for years by the ccp, we know not to trust it. It's disappointing, but if you're really tuned in it just narrows the choices quickly.
