    Chinese pet food... Chinese wall board... Chinese baby food... Chinese toys. Globalism is a charm.

    another good reason not to buy it. it falls apart after one or two wears - that's another.

    There are many stereotypes about the industry that I work in. Sometimes they can be true but human beings are very diverse creatures and cannot be pigeon-holed into one category.

    Some of the most effortlessly beautiful, kind, intelligent, successful, motivated, driven and ridiculously hilarious women that I have ever met have been dancers. I've met the best friends that I've ever had in this industry.

    Yeah...like...as if we don't get told enough that Chinese goods don't meet with International Standards and are full of toxic materials already??!!

    I don't buy Chinese unless I REALLY have to...which means shoes on occasions...but jewellery, clothes, foodstuffs, DIY products, toys, medicines, confectionery, preserves, dry goods, electricals....leave well alone in my book.

    I'm not racist in any way - but it is a FACT that Chinese manufacturing industries use materials that do not comply with industry standards elsewhere in the world......and that includes the toxic paint and the inflammable and poisonous fillings for children's toys....which is one of the biggest scandals.
