** Not about "quality" in the usual sense, but "The Wicked" has a bit where Gumball reads a tag on Margaret Robinson (a very evil {{muppet}} woman) which says she is "made in the fiery pits of the underworld".
** "The Console" is about Gumball receiving a "Game Child", a [[ShoddyKnockoffProduct knockoff so shoddy]] ''the country it was made in'' is also a knockoff ("Chainor"). Turns out, like everything else from [[TheLittleShopThatWasntThereYesterday the Awesome Store]], it's an ArtifactOfDoom that [[TrappedInTVLand turns Elmore into a video game]].

* In an episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'', Marge is in a store looking at a set of kitchen knives. When she notices that the label says "Made in USA", she decides against buying it.
** A ''Simpsons'' CouchGag created by the famed graffiti artist Creator/{{Banksy}} featured workers in a Chinese sweatshop toiling away to make [[TheMerch merchandise]] and DVD sets. Can be seen [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DX1iplQQJTo&feature=player_embedded here.]] CRASH!
** They seem to like this gag. In another episode, when Homer is shopping for a new car and looking at [[TheAllegedCar a particularly crappy one]], he asks the salesman what country it was made in, only to be told that said country no longer exists. This was more of a specific jab at the Yugo than at foreign products in general, though.
** In another episode, Flanders is driving Homer to the big game only for Homer to make him duck so that Lenny and Carl don't see him. Once they see Homer in the passenger seat of a driverless car in motion...

'''Carl:''' One of those AMERICAN robot cars!
** From ''Burns Verkaufen Der Kraftwerk'', when Homer offers one of the German investors who bought the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant a free beer at Moe's:
--->'''Fritz:''' Oh, thank you. My English is not perfect, but I have to tell you, your beer is like swill to us. Do I have that right? I am saying that only a swine would drink this beer.
** One Halloween special showed a gravestone marked "American workmanship". The gravestone promptly crumbles.
** In "Kiss Kiss, Bang Bangalore", Lenny and Carl--recently out of a job because Mr. Burns moved the nuclear plant to India--comment to Moe that the neon Duff Beer sign he's just plugged in is powered by non-American workers. Annoyed, Moe points out that the beer they're drinking is German and the TV they're watching is Japanese, so they ask if ''anything'' in the bar was made in America. Moe points his shotgun at them and says, "Just this." It immediately fires backwards into his own face.
* Downplayed in the ''WesternAnimation/{{Rugrats}}'' episode [[Recap/RugratsS2E4ShowdownAtTeeterTotterGulchMirrorland 'Mirrorland']], Didi purchased several antique knick-knacks from a newly-opened store and brought them home, including a Louis XIX mirror that she asserted was French in origin. Grandpa Lou isn't impressed.

* On ''Creator/MontyPython's Contractual Obligation'' album, Eric Idle does a bit about Australian table wines, trying to convince the listener of their quality, while the joke is that he actually makes them sound even more horrible, such as saying that one "ranks with any of the best sugary wines", another is "for those keen on regurgitation", and another "has a kick on it like a mule! Eight bottles of this and you're ''really'' finished! At the opening of the Sidney Bridge Club, they were fishing them out of the sewers every half an hour!"

** [[HonestJohnsDealership Bubs]] sells donuts made in a country named "Homáde", so he can legally advertise them as "Home Made".
