Brand:  WearEver, "Air Bake"
Purchased:  September 2007
Location:  Target store
Made in Mexico

I went to a Target store and looked at what they had.  Most were thin steel with a "nonstick" coating, made in China.  Personally, I don't really trust the Chinese plastics industry.  If China has an equivalent to the FDA, I have yet to hear about it, so their "nonstick" coating is suspect.  At the Target store there were no baking pans saying, "Made In USA," however, this one was made in Mexico.  It looks alright, and I'm sure my snickerdoodles won't care.

What's the deal with Mexico?

Here is my justification:  Give jobs to nice folks in Mexico, because they can build up their economy.  When the Mexican economy is good, people won't have to risk their lives hiking through the desert in order to sneak across the border.  Think about it:  Why do people sneak across the border?  No jobs.  Instead of building a bigger wall in the USA, why don't we build a better economy in Mexico?  Seems more neighborly that way.  :)  Come on everyone, bake a cookie.
