Poisoning chineese toothpaste was found in the USA

Gilchrist & Soames was recalling toothpaste made in China — that it had distributed to hotels in more than a dozen countries.

Independent tests showed some samples contained diethylene
glycol, a kidney and liver toxin and a central nervous system depressant. The
recall involves 0.65-ounce tubes of toothpaste made in China by Ming Fai
Enterprises International Co. Ltd. and distributed under the Gilchrist &
Soames name. The Indianapolis-based company said it recalled toothpaste from
hotels in Barbados, Belgium, Bermuda, Canada, Dominican Republic, France,
Germany, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, Spain, Switzerland, Turks & Caicos, the
United Arab Emirates, Britain and the United States, and asked hotels to destroy
any remaining inventory.
