“Know It All” does suggest doing research and buying a memory foam mattress pad online, but his or her guidelines are less than knowledgeable.  After going online, typing in “memory foam mattress topper” and finding a “pretty long list of manufacturers and retailers that are selling toppers” the instructions are, and I quote, “Simply go through and find one that’s over 2 inches thick and made in the U.S.”  If only it were that easy!
