Poisoned Milk! Don't drink any Chinese milk!
Guys, I'm surprised nobody is writing about this...
Chinese milk is poison. If you have read the latest news, you will know about the powdered baby formula in China. They have added melamine to it and it is pure poison.
Now they have found that it isn't just powdered baby milk. It's the liquid milk too. I have been drinking it for a while and now I am worried about my health.
And not just one company....ALL OF THEM!
Do not drink Chinese milk. Do not buy Chinese ice cream unless you want kidney failure.
This is a prime example of how Chinese businessmen are thinking. Make all the money you can now, and damn the future. These people who own these dairy companies should be executed.
I hope the Chinese government will punish these people severely, not just punish them, but they should be executed. Anyone who knowingly poisons little babies should be killed.
The Chinese government has executed people for stealing and embezzlement. This is much, much worse.
Please China, execute these people. Make an example of them and show the world that the Chinese government cares about it's infants and adults.
One thing I like about China is that the justice system usually doesn't mess around.
I hope in this case that these people are brought to justice. 12 babies have died already.
These CEO's and greedy bastards should be executed publicly.
If it was my child who was sick or died I would burn down those factories myself.
It's disgusting and sick.
Now I only buy stuff from Nestle. Hopefully that is safe. It's a Swiss company.
Try not to buy any Chinese products if you can avoid it.
Recently, I bought meat from a store. They said it was beef, but when I thawed it, it was pork...and really bad meat, rotten..
If you need food and want to be safe, only shop at Jenny Lou's or Heping gourmet store.
You'll have to pay a lot more, but your health is worth it.
Pray for the Chinese babies who are sick!

Nestle and baby powder milk don't exactly go well hand in hand.
Try searching for what they did in Africa.

Re: Poisoned Milk! Don't drink any Chinese milk!
it's not all Chinese milk - just 10% of the products produced by three of the main players. See yesterday's blog for more details.

Re: Poisoned Milk! Don't drink any Chinese milk!
Oh mate, one serious question, the pack of milk shown in the blog is now contaminated or not? I have not got the point.
Please somebody should tell, because just heard from the doctor that my gf is having stones in the kidney (NO JOKE).
And exactly this pack of milk shown in the other blog is still available in my fridge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the death penalty is barbaric and public executions is a ridiculous concept. All studies show that the risk of death penalty does not discourage violent crime. Apart from that I agree with you,, the people who knowingly added this toxic to consumables should spend the rest of their lives in prison,, I think 30 years in a Chinese prison is a much harder punishment than a bullit in the head anyway.

Re: Poisoned Milk! Don't drink any Chinese milk!
The BRIGHT dairy FRESH MILK (white n blue carton with red colored writing) is also tainted!
I just read that, the milk my 3 kids and I have been consuming for healthy snacks and breakfast everyday for more than 4 years or so here in China is also contaminated with melamine. Not just that, it also has the highest level of melamine amongst the other companies.
VERY DISAPPOINTING AND FRUSTRATING!!! from poisoned toys to formalin candies, toxic toothpaste and now tainted milk, yogurt and ice cream? really a "BRIGHT" future here for the young ones...

I've always bought "organic" milk for my kids while in Beijing, either a Chinese brand or imported from New Zealand, depending on which the local market happens to have on hand. It's expensive (RMB 19-22 per liter) but worth it, to me.

Milk? Why the f*** are people drinking milk in the first place? As far as I'm concerned it's for baby cows. If you have teeth stop drinking milk. Seriously, it's not all that healthy anyway, it's just mostly marketing lies. I'm sure you've all noticed the huge milk industry ad push to make milk a staple food in China, it's a repeat of what's already happened in the states or elsewhere. When are people going to stop believing corporations about what is healthy, or what a good investment is, or you name it? Corps lie to get your money and the governments in their pockets help them.

Re: Poisoned Milk! Don't drink any Chinese milk!
I do agree that it isn't "natural" for adults to be drinking milk, although I don't see much harm in it, unless the drinker is lactose-intolerant or needs to reduce fat consumption (in which case there's always fat-free milk). But has anyone else noticed how much taller kids are in both China and the US these days? My eldest has always been in the "75th percentile" on the doctors' charts for height but has also always been among the shortest in her class. Everybody else is well above the 75th %-ile, but the charts are apparently out of date. I attribute this tall trend at least in part to increased consumption of calcium-rich foods, such as dairy products. Maybe the growth hormones that the cows were fed boost the kids too. And I'm sure better nutrition in general plays a significant part. But I wouldn't write milk off as a completely useless beverage, just yet.

Re: Poisoned Milk! Don't drink any Chinese milk!
for thousands of years cultures around the world have been eating milk and dairy products long before corporations and governments told them what was "healthy". The question is not why are people drinking milk,why can't people get safe milk in this day and age?
As for buying imported brands exclusively, many foreign owned companies produce their products regionally. That means many of them use the same raw materials that domestic companies use. Example: If you buy Listerine on this side of the world, it is produced in Thailand.
So don't let the name brand make you too comfortable. Look at their production location and investigate further.
This problem however is not uniquely Chinese, it happens all over the world, even in so called developed countries. China is under a microscope these days and everything makes the news.
My baby was drinking blacklist milk for three months and thankfully tested negative. She now drinks S-26 from Singapore. American company Johnson-Mead, which enjoys a 24% market share in China, announced in response to the crisis they would RAISE there prices by 15%. Everyone wants to make a quick buck.
There should be justice in this case that is swift and severe.

Do you think many domestic Chinese brands are using imported raw materials?

If you think you only have to worry about milk products - think again.
Milk powder is in almost everything as filler and protein enhancer.
Where do you think milk powder comes from? The liquid milk mountain.

Re: Poisoned Milk! Don't drink any Chinese milk!
Does China subsidize commodity prices? That might tend to discourage people from adulterating food. My understanding is that the price of milk production was rising, but apparently the prices paid for milk was not?
Nestle is on the list now too.

I haven't tried starbucks with soy milk. But I did once have my coffee with soy milk. Horrible (or just too weird).

Count me in Dude! But, who cares in this country anyway? Does the authorities care for babies' life? To face the truth - China is killing babies almost everyday because abortion here is legalized. I once visited a public hospital with my friend and I saw a long line of pregnant mothers applying for abortion and I noticed there are some carrying 3 months in their womb. . .Huuuhh! Dammnnnn.. so strange! My heart turned into melting ice. Those babies has a heart beat already and that means there is a life inside the womb. If there's somebody deserves to be executed it must be the authorities themselves for being ignorant and for not giving values to human life, especially to those innocent babies. Do they know what "VALUES" means?

just ask the criminals what they prefer. 30 years in prison is nothing compared with death penalty. they'll just labor and day dream like you and me... nothing too different

Re: Poisoned Milk! Don't drink any Chinese milk!
If you ask any of the top medics in the world, off the record, they will all advise against the consumption of milk and dairy in general.
And why anyone would feed their baby formula instead of breast milk is beyond me. Regardless of how knowledgable you are with nutrition and science, what does your gut feeling and intuition say? Natural milk produced by the mother or milk from cows that is processed and chemicalised? Is there really a need to deviate from natural law?
If you take two plants, expose one to natural light (from the sun) and the other to artificial light, how many of you are willing to bet on your intuition that the plant exposed to natural light will grow more healthily than the other exposed to artificial light.

The best thing about drinking milk is that after you milk the cow you can kill it and barbecue it.

Aparently I hear that the European standard limit is something like 40ppm and the US limit is 20ppm for melamine in milk, so it is fairly widespread across the globe it seems.
If Nestle has a limit of 4-6ppm then it is well within the limits imposed by the above countries. Now, that doesn't say that have ANY in there is good at all, but it seems that it is all a matter of degree.
I think some people are saying that any diaries which use plastic containers to store their milk (rather than the old glass milking storage vessels - udder->milk storage vessel->storage tank) will get some plastic residue (maybe melamine)in the milk. This is where it is 'alleged' to come from.
I have not seen many articles on it in the press, but I haven't loooked too hard.

Re: Poisoned Milk! Don't drink any Chinese milk!
I went to a hospital---BEFORE this story came out a few months ago as my kidneys HURT---thinking it could be A kidney stone I had an ultra sound done at the Xie He Hospital in Beijing. The ultra sound showed that my kidneys contained a few BIG kidney stones and THOUSANDS of small stones----I'm 47 years old and have been living in China off and on for 10 years. IF this has anything to do with the melamine scare---I'm feeling a bit put out.....I ocasionally have painful sensations as if my kidneys may be failing....DOES anyone know if the hospitals here NOW have some kind of urine test that indicates a MELAMINE measurement? If anyone knows anything about this I would be VERY very appreciative....

Re: Poisoned Milk! Don't drink any Chinese milk!
I don't know of a urine test for melamine poisoning. The WHO have updated their page on this topic; it's not encouraging.
By the way, according to this website, in Singapore even White Rabbit Candy has tested positive for abnormally high amounts of melamine. Guess it's time to kick my White Rabbit habit....

Re: Poisoned Milk! Don't drink any Chinese milk!
It IS BIZARRE that the Chinese government can get soooo upset and immediately speaking words of war the minute a couple of Chinese nationals lives are put into danger in other courntries due to neglegence or violent actions...BUT WHEN the entire Chinese population's BABIES lives are at stake they are MORE than willing to shitcan all of them for the sake of Making HUGE PROFITS for the "brothers" of "hood" or more simply put the "Party"...If this incident had happened in a country where the government genuinely cared for its people---all the parties involved would be strung up by their short hairs and the government---would be REPLACED. My advice----if you must have milk----breast feed---even if your 47!! I do....
