The Gap and Lauren Bush’s FEED charity are facing criticism after it came to light that the Made in USA FEED bags sold exclusively through The Gap stores are actually made in China.
The offending Made in China tag is placed right next to the Made in USA stamp and patriotic American flag hang tag. Well that’s awkward. And frankly, it’s disappointing.
It’s admirable that $5 from the sale of every one of these limited edition FEED bags helps to improve the quality of school lunch food for American children. But when no money benefits American manufacturers, that donation begins to feel pretty hollow.
This is a major gaffe for The Gap and Lauren Bush’s charity, which is sadly going to sully the non-profit’s good work feeding children around the world. What do you think about the controversy? Will it make you think twice before buying a FEED bag in future?
