Default Not just dog food!

Take a look at a can of mushrooms. I don't know of even one that's not made in China (even Pennsylvania Dutch brand). Would YOU eat something from China? How about vitamins? If you take vitamins, most likely you're eating something from China. I designed a packaging machine for a large vitamin company and the engineer I worked with said that almost all vitamins are either made in China or the ones made in USA are compounded from ingredients sourced in China.

I'm no granola or anything, but I do try to eat locally grown food and avoid eating food from other countries. I travel occasionally so I have to eat foreign food, but it's almost universally understood that it's healthier to avoiding ingesting (or breathing) anything from China until they start having more regard for life.

Okay, back to dog food...
