Default Interesting Product - Made in America

Hey guys,

I know this isn't gun related but this is where I hang out.

I recently found stainless steel hotdog roasting forks that are made by a guy out in Minnesota. The ones in the stores are pretty much all made in china. Even the ones with an American flag on them.

I put a post in the classified - camping section about it.

Here is the link:

I'm doing this because for starters I think it's ridiculous that some folks are using chrome plated forks to cook food for their families. Especially since typically hotdog roasting forks are associated with children. I also believe in supporting American business people. Especially the hard working type that are turning thier backs to inferior products from china.

On a side note in the search for these forks, I called a couple of smaller producers located throught the U.S. and they were so proud that thier product is assembled here. When I asked about the materials they would dance around the issue. One even went as far as to tell me that the handle is made here. I had to ask specifically where is the freakin fork made, you know the part that goes in the food. I don't need to say anymore.
