Beware of melamine.....

bubblecat

be careful of buying and drinking milk or any product with melamine. melamine cause death. It is being mix with milk powder or liquid and any can goods, especially product  from china, like milk and can goods.

Melamine is an organic base and a trimer of cyanamide, with a 1,3,5-triazine skeleton. Like cyanamide, it contains 66% nitrogen by mass and, if mixed with resins, has fire retardant properties due to its release of nitrogen gas when burned or charred, and has several other industrial uses. Melamine is also a metabolite of cyromazine, a pesticide. It is formed in the body of mammals who have ingested cyromazine. It has been reported that cyromazine can also be converted to melamine in plants.

If you know about other product with this kind of chemicals, leave it here so that everyone will know..XD

I posted a thread talking about the wide spread contamination here.

It is in many candies, instant coffee, teas, and creamers. Name brands. There is now a rumor about Kraft being affected by this. Many products in asian markets, I believe Virginia (don't know which) have been discovered.



They're talking about the milk as though it is at the top of the chain of contamination, but the coffee and tea lead me to believe otherwise.

Good thing I don't eat or drink much of these things.  And I have a cow in the backyard that I milk for my cereal.

The easy way to avoid melamine is this: Don't buy anything that comes from China.

The melamine containing products of China where banned everywhere. So be careful guys, I've heard that some still bypasses some system so China can still import their products.

I'm not against the Chinese but let's not forget the lead content issue of toys manufactured in China also.

 

I mean, there was a list of products that are suspected with melamine content, and I can't believe that M&M's milk chocolates, Oreo cookies, and even the Dreyers ice cream are also part of that list.
