Thanks. Another thing to change and verify that it's Made in the USA only. I never wanted Made in China vitamins to begin with.

I've been taking too much for granted, but that illusion isn't working any more.

It seems that "Made in USA" does not mean that the entire product is made here, nor does it preclude foriegn sourcing of raw materials.

The quality and value of simple tools and kitchen utensils has declined to the point that I purchase most of them at flea markets and antique malls. There are a lot of very high-quality implements to be had at rock-bottom prices. But food and medicine have to be purchased new, and the labelling can be very deceptive. I bought a first aid kit this weekend. The plastic case proudly proclaims "Made in USA" but the contents are entirely sourced from China. I suppose that the outer box is made here, and the deceptive label is therefore not actionable.
