There are certain items that are more susceptible:

- kids toys

- any kind of supplements/protein powder/etc.

- cheaper electronics/cables/etc.

I'd add all high profit margin fashion items like clothing and cosmetics. There's already a market of counterfeits for these goods and it's natural for them to use Amazon for more sales.

The severity is bad if counterfeit but isn't this unlikely to happen because anything edible can't be commingled?

Anti-commingle doesn't help if you buy from a third party seller.
