2 Finds @ Aldi's Yesterday. 1 Is a Yay, The Other Is A Nay.

 I did a little bit of shopping yesterday @ Aldi's. I found 2 products I never purchased before. One was a loaf of Sourdough bread already sliced. I read the ingredients listed and no yeast in it so I thought I would try it. Maybe I will not have to make the trip to Wholefoods now if this is fine as a sourdough bread made without yeast. The other item was a last minute item I found while heading to the checkout counter. It was by Welby and they were10 - 3 layer masks for 4.99. I was talking with the cashier at checkout asking her opinion about the bread and the masks. I would guess this must be a pretty good bread since she told me they are usually sold out of it. A person that has a food truck comes in and buys it and uses it for the food truck. I liked hearing that. Next inquiry, do you know anything about these face masks? I told her I did not want to buy them if they were made in China. She responded she did not know about the masks but someone came in and bought I beleive she said 20 of them. Do the math 4.99 x 20 could be quite costly what do you think? We both looked at the package to see where they were made but did not find that out. I told her I would check them out and if they were no good I would be returning them. I got in my car and opened the package to see the quality of the mask. As I was pulling one out a little paper was tucked inside the package. It definitely had Asian type of markings on this piece of paper in which I could not read or interpret the writing/printing. It was stamped a few times with some sort of stamp marking. I knew it had to be made in China that was my gut instinct. I put it back in the package. I then looked at the back of the package and in tiny print at the bottom it said it was made in China.

I then went back in the store and got in line with the same cashier to return it and let her know it was made in China. I commented that China sent this covid to us and now they are trying to make money on people in the USA buying their protective stuff. She said that it was a man from France that brought it here after he went to China and got it there. I said that is the point he went to China and picked up the covid virus and brought it here.

Aldi's please stop trying to selling the American people protective gear that was made in China. It was eerie opening that package and that piece of paper was inside it. I never experienced anything like that before. People take caution in regard to the things you buy. A seemingly good deal may just not be that with further insight and looking into the item and the origin country from where it came from. I'm just saying ...

As I am writing this I have in tandem live streaming of Church on the North Coast and on tv live streaming of SonLife broadcasting. Blessings this day.
