Tainted Chinese toothpaste circulated more than initially thought

Is the situation with Chinese imports getting out of control? If you eat food or brush your teeth in the U.S., you could say that. From pet food ingredients to toothpaste to common foods, imports from China are being looked at as never before based on so many chemicals and other bad things being found in all of those products.

What are those "bad things?" How about the toxic preservative formaldehyde, unsafe food coloring and antifreeze ingredients? Yes, all of these have been found in many Chinese-made human consumption products recently.

The recent toothpaste scare has even become larger than originally thought, as authorities now believe the tainted cavity preventer was distributed to many more locations throughout the U.S. than had been thought previously. As manufacturers will never, ever learn, cheaper products can sometimes come with a much higher price tag in the long run.
