When is the last time you were in a dollar store, pray tell? As if all the items (esp. food) are made in China!?!? What would you say if I told you that I buy the same name brands at a dollar store that you buy at your local grocery - probably for much less money?

I’m definitely concerned about China producing our products - especially food whether for dogs or humans. I don’t think though that when I buy a can of, for instance, Chef Boyardee at the dollar store that the company that makes that food makes the cans that go to the dollar stores anywhere different than where they make the cans that end up on your grocery shelf. A Baby-Ruth candy bar is the same if I buy it at a dollar store, or from the gas station, or from my local grocery store, or even from Wal-mart.

When is the last time you were in a dollar store, pray tell? Last week.

As if all the items (esp. food) are made in China! Many are. Always look. I found breakfast cereal from Egypt.

What would you say if I told you that I buy the same name brands at a dollar store that you buy at your local grocery - probably for much less money? It happens sometimes. Check the expiration date too.
