POISONED PET FOOD AND TAINTED TOOTHPASTE TOO:
The Itchmo Blog reports that one of the Chinese toothpaste manufacturers whose human toothpastes were recently identified as containing antifreeze, Suzhou City Jinmao Chemicals Co. Ltd., also manufacturers dog toothpaste. While researching this company Molly found no indication that this particular product is exported outside of China, but caution is recommended. Also from the Itchmo site, Molly has come to understand that the Cooldent brands that contained diethylene glycol were not only the ICE label but also Cooldent Spearmint and Cooldent Fluoride.
Speaking of expansions here is another list of Chinese brands that are presumably exported. In the following the abbreviations YSIE refers to Yangzhou Sinorun Import and Export Co. Ltd. and YLDUC refers to Yangzhou Lierkany Daily Used Chemicals Co. Ltd.

As the reader can see some of the above are obvious "rip-offs" from more well known brands. Most will be names that few people come in contact with unless they shop at discount stores. Well....that says Winnipeg all over, the world capital of the "dollar store".
Anyways, there are many more names to come. Stay tuned here for the next installment of this list and avoid those so far mentioned in either this or previous posts on this blog.
