Even Chinese were surprised at the rather disturbing contents of a too cheap for comfort made in China pillow.
The object above is apparently an empty cigarette packet – fortunately, sewage is just too valuable to find its way into a mere pillow.
A made in China punching bag offers quality along similar lines – why use sand when you can use rubbish?

Recycling rocks!!! ^_^
Recycling is one amongst many other things China just doesn't do right.
not exactly.just think. if china made a hug pillow this way and print ishihara's figure on it, it would be identical to the real thing.
Yeah, but instead of using it as a hugging pillow, people would no doubt use it as a punching bag!
How about asking all the otakus to each carry one Ishithara dakimakura just before the election.... well that might actually promote him so i guess its a no
you know maybe you ar on to something there
Trash is a part of daily life by now guys. Any of you remember the soup broth from trash or that optimus and gundam made out of trash? whats next China? Condoms made out of recycled gloves?
so.... I think the best question would be, what kinds of things do they NOT make out of trash?
probably
well there's a high grade motorcycle tire made of a used condoms.. produce in indonesia but i believe the used condoms comes from somewhere in europe. makes you think how they manage to gather a container full of used condoms..
Next: Gloves made out of recycled condoms.
Crack Rocks?
Yeah! They've discovered just how to recycle everything apparently. It makes me remember the cooking oil made from sewage.
Yuck they should use used motor oil instead. LOL
motor oil is expensive :(
Well, it's say its sucks... and smells
Another reason to NEVER go 'green' IMO
yeah, go ahead and use this as an argument for not being environment friendly. You'll just shoot yourself in the foot
Agreed. Some people apparently don't see the irony of using the mass of Chinese rubbish as an argument NOT to be green.
That's... just wrong.
That's... just disgusting.
That's... just a good business idea. How to make money from garbage? Chinese already know this "secret".
Well the rubbish part isn't the problem.
It's the sanitary side of things.
How do you think they can make everything so cheap anyway?
The clue, the don't even use the lowest quality of raw materials, they use garbage. And for everything as well...
That's... just china.
I bet some person trying to bash China just stuffed a pillowcase with trash and then took picture of it >.>
someones a lil racist eh?! typical lamo response has nothing to do with the actual 'so called story'
have you ever been to china or seriously met any so-called thieves? or any chinese ppl for the matter?
how stupid does one have to be believe this garbage? this story is total nonsense, no one would be that stupid to buy a pillow like that and not realize its true contents. typical internet myth rubbish... literally.
@anon 09:46:
"How did i know? Well, if their country was so great why would you often find so many ... scattered all over the world like garbage"
There are 1,300,000,000 people in China and roughly 40,000,000 Chinese diaspora around the world. That works out to about 1 in 33 people from China living abroad. For scale, compare that to the diaspora from the UK, where 1 in 11 people live abroad, or better yet, compare the numbers to Ireland, where 13 in 14 people live abroad (not a typo).
The difference between China's diaspora and other groups is mainly due to the fact that their population is so enormous that even a small fraction of their people living elsewhere (like 3 in 100) results in a population two thirds the size of the UK spread out around the world.
In other news, China has recently overtaken Japan as the worlds second largest economy... -_-
china! land of thieves. Heck they still sit on the second rate shit hole country. How did i know? Well, if their country was so great why would you often find so many chinks scattered all over the world like garbage. China scum!
That's... just Ishihara-like
Wouldn't the smell or feel give it away? lol
I imagine an empty pack of cigarettes would still smell a bit like cigarettes.
Well, plastic and paper do not smell.
not enough evidence to say it was made by a company. I mean anyone could of just stuffed the pillow with rubbish then taken the picture.
i would think it as somebody planning to throw the trash but couldn't find a bigger bag so he use the pillow case that he was going to throw anyway.
and take some pictures to troll us all...
now this makes more sense as its quite logical. who the heck would buy a pillow and not realize whats really inside? have any one of you EVER purchased a pillow without touching or squeezing it? internet garbage... thats all it really is.
I'm inclined to agree. I mean if something like this were actually found, it'd be all over the morning news shows warning people about it.
Agreed. It's good that the Chinese are making pictures of this and warn other Chinese so they won't buy these fake Pillows (and many other fake products) in China.
Seriously, who would buy these fake pillow? They stinks, right, if you see what those swindlers put in the pillows!?
Is that a dead rat in the third pic?
Hard to tell. But I wouldn't be surprised if more than one thing is dead in there.
And here I thought bed bugs was all we had to worry about.
Might be alive...
America told asia the biggest lesson of capitalism: how to make consummers pay for rubbish ;)

Bwavo
Clappity clappity!
actually there is a chicken leg bone anyone?
Yep, and a greasy celophane sack where that chiken leg probably was.
OMG it might be 0-0'
Maybe... it also looks like the guy took that rat from pic 3 then placed it on top of the pillow in pic 4 maybe saving it for later. (dead rat better than eating raw sewage)
But you would buy that for a dollar, wouldn't you?
It is! China gives another meaning to recycling
Oh China, what will you think of next?
