Thanks Cordelia. Here's something else- just in from the BBC's website in the UK: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/6686... about toxins found in toothpaste coming from China. A quick snippet from the article: "Panama and the Dominican Republic have reported finding diethylene glycol, a chemical used in engine coolants, in toothpaste from China."

AND: "Cough syrup containing diethylene glycol originating from China killed more than 50 people in Panama last year. The New York Times said a Chinese chemical maker had sold the industrial-grade chemical as glycerine, which is often used as a moistener in products from toothpaste to soap and cosmetics."

More than just food for thought!
