I don’t think that phrase means what you think it means.

First it was poisoned pet food, and then bad milk.  Now it’s instant coffee, candy, and pastry.  Shortsighted, greedy American businessmen can’t hold a candle to the Chinese, who seem bound and determined to run "brand China" into the ground. I now interpret their label this way:  MADE IN CHINA = TOXIC.

Update (28 Sep).  It’s even worse.  The Chinese are selling contaminated milk powder to other food producers in the region.

Update (4 Oct).  Now the FDA is minimizing the problem here in the US.  Tell that to all the dead pets from last year.  Couldn’t we just test drive Sarah Palin as President for a month or so, so some of these bureaucrat bastards could get well and truly fired?
