This is just DESPICABLE. Dairy farmers in China have dumped toxic melamine into the milk to make the protein content appear higher. This is milk used for baby formula, for pete’s sake!
There was a HUGE hoo-hah over Chinese melamine dumped into pet food; has anyone heard about this poisoning of baby formula?
Thank God the United States forbids imported baby formula, but babies in China and New Zealand are not faring so well. Some have serious health problems now. Also, some of this formula may have made its way into the U.S. through ethnic grocery stores. This is deplorable.
If you have any baby formula, please check and make sure that it is not made in China. Come to think of it, let’s dump out EVERYTHING that’s made in China.
I’m a married mom with 4 kids. We live in Upstate New York in an old 1855 house with our five pets (yes, five, *sigh*). Life is never dull, and exciting things just seem to always happen to me... why me... when I'm not running around the house fixing things, I do freelance writing and blogging. My work and opinions have appeared in Salon.com, USAToday, eHow.com, iMedia.com, the Associated Press and I've even been interviewed by TIME and The Wall Street Journal about blogging. Can you believe it?! Here is where I express my zany, creative, motherly side.

I heard about this and could not understand how a company could knowingly do this. What makes it worse is that most of the families in China can only have one child. To lose that one child is really devastating on these people.

children’s toys with lead, cribs that hurt the baby and now milk with harmful chemicals!!? man these guys would do everything in the name of cheap mass production. I even heard they substituted brown paper to real meat on some steamed sandwiches they mass produced!!
