FDA says small amount of melamine is OK

October 4, 2008

Melamine, the industrial chemical that has sickened and killed a number of Chinese from drinking tainted milk has found it’s way into our food system via dairy containing products such as chocolate candy.  Now the FDA says a small amount melamine is “ok”  unless it’s in baby formula.  I’d rather avoid it in all cases whatever the FDA says.  Which makes me wonder, can we tell by the label if a candy bar is manufactured in China?   I prefer non-dairy, dark chocolate anyway.
