Wei said China is willing to strengthen cooperation and exchanges with the U.S. and to resolve disputes on product quality and food safety through negotiations and investigations.
MeKeown''s visit came after the U.S. and China seized unsafe products from each side this year.
The U.S. said the melamine-tainted wheat protein from China were linked to the deaths of cats and dogs in North America and claimed some of Chinese toothpastes, tires, and seafood unsafe.
Meanwhile, China seized orange pulp and dried apricots from the U.S. that contain excessive bacteria, mildew and sulfur dioxide.
