Chinese recycling!

Do we ever stop and wonder how China makes goods so cheaply? It cant be cheap labor alone.

As per this report used condoms are being recycled into hair bands in southern China, threatening to spread sexually-transmittable diseases they were originally meant to prevent.People could be infected with AIDS, (genital) warts or other diseases if they hold the rubber bands or strings in their mouths while waving their hair into plaits or buns.

Leave it to the Chinese to recycle stuff!

Cardboard filled buns!

Why is it that suddenly there is a deluge of news coming out of China about its tainted food?! It cant be an overnight happening. But there it is! The focus of the world is now on China's spurious and shoddy
products
and adulterated food.

The latest in the line is Cardboard filled buns sold on the streets of Beijing! Yes, buns as in steamed buns.

The recipe goes like this: Cardboard is soaked in water and an industrial-use caustic soda, a poisonous chemical, is added. The cardboard loses its normal color and becomes fragile under the soda's strong causticity, making it look more like pork. Finally, pork-smell essence and pork fat are stirred into the concoction to make the stuffing more vivid and edible.Good grief! What next?

Sub-Standard Chinese goods

AGAIN!
And this time its car tires which have less rubber in their innards and hence more prone to getting heated up and bursting at high speeds. ’Made in China’ is now becoming a euphemism for ’Watch Out- Use at your own Risk’.

Watch the Chinese Brilliance BS6 sedan (made in China under the name of Zhonghua)failing the European car crash test,using Euro NCAP guidelines,at just 40m/h(64Km/h) and is aptly named bullshit by the uploader of this video.Predictably, that crappy car failed the test and got just one star rating for its dismal safety standards.
