Today's Recalled Product list contains one item sold by Dollar Tree, and one item from Family Dollar and Jo-Anne Stores, One Fisher-Price toy, one cake decoration (oh my god!).
I really do think this is only the beginning. And I wish the US made more products instead of importing so much junk!
Please join my Gather group, recalls4safety.
I created this group to post Product Recalls.
We all need to keep everyone alerted to these unsafe products so we can all protect ourselves.
Please post any product recalls in this group.

I hope that there are no recalls I may be missing? I hope not.
I am concerned over these recalls, it is scary to think that products like the recalled ones have been imported into this country for years, as the companies have been doing business with China for years.
I often think about all the products I have purchased over the years that say made in China.
I hate to put a label on China, but geeze much of the recalled stuff has been from China and recalled due to lead levels.
I do not think this will be the last of the recalls
We are one of China's biggest importers.
