Q: Why is there an "S" on product packaging in China?

Have you noticed this "S" that appears on at the bottom of every box/packaging for goods in China? What does it mean?

The White/Blue logo. It's the QS Label. QS means "Quality Safety" It is required on all food products. 

It is regulated by the AQSIQ. Products with the label can be trusted to be possibly safe for human consumption.

Gee, I thought the S stood for Safeway as in Safeway Supermarkets back in the States!  Now that I think about it, the U.S. Safeway logo is red and white - not blue and white.  Oh, well.  Foiled again... or is that fooled again...?

A:1. Native speaker. 2. Bachelor's degree, minimum. Apostilled. They stopped recognizing online degrees several years ago. . 3. Either a teaching certification from your home country/iPGCE or a 120 hrs TEFL course. Apostilled 4. Criminal background check from your home country issued within the past 6 months.
