A scandal over tainted infant formula spread Monday as authorities acknowledged as many as 10,000 babies may have ingested milk powder laced with the same chemical found in contaminated pet-food exports last year that caused scores of U.S. animals to die. Melamine, a chemical in making plastics and fertilizers, has been used by Chinese businesses to boost protein readings in animal feed and other food products. Pet foods containing melamine-laced ingredients traced to China sickened and killed thousands of dogs and cats in the U.S. last year. Many infants who were fed Sanlu milk powder were stricken with kidney stones. So far, 1,253 babies have become ill and 340 of them are in the hospital, with 53 of them in serious condition, said Health Ministry spokesman Ma Xiaowei. He acknowledged two infants died in Gansu Province, a poor, dusty region in the nation's arid northwest. "As many as 10,000 infants may have drunk the contaminated Sanlu infant formula," Ma said. None of Sanlu's infant formula is believed to have been exported to North America."

tip of the iceberg. wait until the monosodium glutamate (MSG) tsunami hits. It’s a white crystal, like meth, cut with who knows what? and it’s in everything, they are currently making tons and tons of it to add to our food. even the “organics” are sprayed with it.
Having had kidney stones twice myself, I can’t fathom an infant going through something like that. Good grief.

Imagine if this milk had been ingested by 10,000 infants in the US. There is not a company in the world that could withstand the class-action lawsuit that would be the result.
Consider 10,000 times say US$1 Million — no lawsuit would ever be for less in the US...
or am I just being cynical?
So they didn’t think it was a big deal to add it to baby food even though they know it killed animals.
China is either evil or stupid. Or both.
Wow, China sounds like an unsafe place for consumers. You’d think that the free traders would be more concerned.
I think it is the natural consequence of taking God out of the equation. No matter how much the secularists try to deny it, all morality extends from the presumption of a higher power — a belief that there is such a thing as evil and that things that are evil need to be resisted.
Take away God and everything, absolutely everything, becomes relative. That means that, to a person making contaminated baby milk, money in his pocket is more important than dead babies.
Things just keep getting weirder and weirder... worse and worse...

The chickens are coming home to roost.

Hard to believe that this could really be happening in a country where they execute you for small infractions.
