Canada

Its infuriating when I see labels other than "made in"

Things like designed in, packaged in, assembled in etc.

Sure, include those in addition to the made in label but don't replace it.

If 90% of the item is imported from another country, say that country.

Any country involved in over 10% of the items production should be listed on the packaging in my opinion.

"Designed in America, assembled and packaged in Taiwan, produced using components from mexico, Brazil, Australia"

For example.

Regardless, product origin labeling should be done accurately.

100%. Country of origin is as important for some as allergen warnings.

It's incredible how entire product lines can be recalled for not having the right labels (even if there's no risk to health and safety).

Yet these grocery stores can't do a quick check of labels? Nah, it's done intentionally to fleece customers.

And if they order products that appear to have misleading labels, then they should act as a firewall between the customer, and they need to let their supplier know before anything goes on store shelves.

There's a local brewing supply co that does cannister swaps for SodaStream things and I'm trying to figure out how to diplomatically ask "so are you actually paying SodaStream for rights to do this or are you just DIYing it?"

Since, like, I assume Canadian Tire pays SS for like official vendor status for swapping the cannisters.

And I don't wanna pay SodaStream. I mean I'm not gonna throw out my old stuff either, it still works, just needs fresh CO2.
