I just did more reading on it - thanks for the vid link. I had no clue that the tainting was intentional - the individuals responsible are horrible. Makes me sick.
I try to purchase stuff made in the US or in North America when I can.

This reminds me, yesterday I got my MPGuino and the bubble-mailer the package came in says, "made in Canada" on it. I was very happy and proud that such was used.
I seriously doubt any of the packaging stuff in stores in the U.S. is made in north america. We should be ashamed of what our materialism and "quality of living" has cost us.
