KROGER COMPANY's RALPHS selling RECYCLED BAGS MADE IN CHINA

Recently I made a purchase at Ralph's Grocery company of some organic plastic bottled drinks. The offer was a steep discount on the bottled drinks with a Ralph's Grocery card - more than a dollar off per bottle - as well as the gift of a Ralphy's grocery bag subsititue for plastic throw aways if you bought five of them. The problem was that this bag is MADE IN CHINA, imported by a company called "EarthSound" (Which sounds very earthy!) which is found at www.intramericanproducts.com (no mention of Asia on that .com). I don't know how these two products were teamed up, but Kroger company owns Ralphs as well as Food For Less, and with that kind of buying power, you would think they could come up with a MADE IN THE USA resource!
