Who would have thought

that people in a Communist country would do things as capitalistic as adulterate food in order to make it look better, taste different or change test readings.

Heinz recalls baby food in Hong Kong for melamine

(The big difference is that in China these people will pay huge penalties, sometimes even their lives, while in the West they'll get government grants and subsidies. Even dirty Capitalism pays here...)
