Food Safety: Tainted Eggs from China

From tainted pet food, baby formula milk now to tainted eggs in China, we should begin to understand how failure to monitor food safety has tremendous impact down the food chain. Feeding chicken with melamine taints their eggs, and the food distribution chain down to the baked goods made with tainted milk and eggs. 

For a list of products (including favorite snacks like Pocky, White Rabbit candy) tested by the Hong Kong Government with "unsatisfactory" levels of melamine, click here.

The saying that we eventually "reap what we sow" is literally true! If ever there was a time to be vegetarian, now is the time.
