Nothing beats the safety of a $1,35 Chinese toy bought at the Dollar Store and that’s why “Chinese-made toys are overwhelmingly safe,” the official Chinese news agency claimed on Friday. (A week after Mattel pulled goods because of fears about lead in paint on Chinese toys.)

“Although there are a few problems with some made-in-China toys, generally the safety quality is worthy of being trusted,” the official Xinhua news agency told Reuters citing unknown officials.

So, you see little John, you don’t have to be afraid anymore! Suck on your $1,35 Chinese toy made with plastic from Chernobyl. Xinhua said it’s safe and if Xinhua says it’s safe, then it must be.  :)
