    Tainted baby formula in China

    Melamine rears its ugly head again...http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/asiapc...ula/index.html

    I wonder if this is the same bunch who were contaminating pet food with melamine.
    I've been finally defrosted by cassiesmom!

    Richard!!

    The formula was spiked with melamine for the exact same reason the pet food ingredient was: to boost the nitrogen assay, which indicates protein content.

    I know, I am sorry.

    IT's just that sometimes the literal evil in me comes out and I cannot resist.
