Check out 10 products still made in America! No. 9 will completely surprise you--and may make you LOL!

This will likely make you smile...  

From time to time I overhear conversations around me where others comment on how it seems that almost everything we buy, touch, use is "Made in China"--which seems to some people odd, since it was in the U.S. that manufacturing was a booming industry not that many years ago.  

In truth much of this was a direct result the U.S. being among the victors of WWII and, thus, to become destined to be the suppliers of things and materials to rebuild much of the world for many decades after.  But that seems to have changed in significant ways!

If you don't know, you'd never guess what it is in a million years.

A few days ago I ran across a list I found it on Jim Cramer's site, THE STREET, of mostly iconic items that were originally--and still are--"Made in the America."  They range from motorcycles and autos to toys and crayons.  However, on the list--Number Nine, to be exact--was a complete surprise to me...and I'd expect to you as well.  

If you want to get a chuckle and learn of a little known fact that you can use at the dinner table, your next cocktail party, or trivia contest...check out The Ten Things Still Made in America and what the product is that's made in the U.S. and exported to China!  As I said--you'll find it unexpected and amusing!
