I am surprised to see this mentioned so often here. It's the
retailers' decision what to put on the shelf to offer the customer
and they have gone to Chinese manufacturing to increase profits.

If there's nothing available other than "made in China" I won't buy.
When there's no alternative and it's an essential item, what is the
customer supposed to do?
