Why is the produced necessary? Thank you!

In my opinion, yes. Without a verbal adjective, the meaning is unclear. You may used: Imported, made, produced or packaged. Or use can simply say "from China".

If you say that to someone who is in China or is going there, it's "Be careful of the food in China", meaning they should watch what they eat. To be careful "with" the food means to try not to damage it, which is not what you mean.

That is a natural way of putting it. As always, there are a thousand and one alternatives:

Watch out for the food in China.
Watch what you eat in China.
Be careful what you eat in China.
Be wary of the food in China.

I thought it could be kind of foreign-sounding, I don't know why. But it seems to be fine.
