Virago. Have you sold this stuff before?
Last time I checked one of the leading brands for at least 10 or 20 years (Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard) said 'manufactured in the USA' on the packing. Is this just another loophole of the FDA labeling regs?
Same for baby milk powder by the way, everybody here in HK could get the Chinese stuff, but no we want the one imported from overseas because we don't trust anything coming from China. The mainlanders who come to HK snatching milk powder stock would agree too. The price for milk powder in HK is about two or three times the price I pay back in Europe, in a small high priced + 20% VAT country (don't tell me that's the shipping cost or higher rent).
Years before the Chinese milk scandal I read somewhere that Chinese protein powder was diluted with melamine to fake a higher protein content. When I read that first I thought that was some BS, but I have been proven wrong a few years later.

To be honest 100LL I don't know for a fact it goes from China to usa but that's what someone told me and I'm sure they could still get away with putting 'made in usa' especially if it's mixed with something.
I know what you mean about China though. What was it about 'tofu' houses made of hollow bricks or something?! That's why I wouldn't know where to start - would need someone to snort a line of protein and confirm it's the real deal!
