Oh no, thank you for sharing.
I really don't understand actions like that, I mean, making scams like this with bitterleaf or fake eggs or rice. As this very rarely happens in Europe, because of the free market, I read recently that it happens still in some places in Africa or Asia. But for example, in the East Europe like Poland and Ukraine and Czech and Slovakia, there are worse everyday products like washing powder or chocolate even the brand is the same. They are/were lesser quality.
