minus-squareJaxlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·edit-26 months agoThere are absolutely still garbage products coming out of China, that hasn’t changed. What has changed is that not all of their products are garbage. Companies there have absolutely stepped it up in recent years. That being said: https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/health-environment/article/3196259/tests-show-12-out-13-childrens-toothpastes That’s all but one of the toothpastes tested *containing lead. Make of that what you will, but I personally wouldn’t put it past Chinese companies taking shortcuts with what they export.
