I bought 4 packets of Mr Chen’s Dumplings products from Coles when they were on special for half price a week ago.
At the time, I checked the packaging for the country of origin and saw that it was Vietnam, but despite never buying food products from China and Vietnam, I decided to give them a try.
After we ate the first packet of them, I again tried to find the country of origin but could not see it, even after putting my reading glasses on.
I tried again to find it later in the day and finally spotted “Product of Vietnam” in very small print in the top right corner on the side panel.
It is in stark contrast to the words “Handmade’, “Family Business” and “Australian Owned” prominently displayed on the rear panel which could convey the impression that the product was locally made.
At least they were absolutely delicious.
