What’s the deal with this idiocy? The FDA says melamine is safe and lo and behold, a couple of weeks later we find out there’s melamine in formula. Is this to forestall lawsuits against the formula manufacturers? ‘Melamine is safe, you can’t sue.’?

I realize everyone can’t breast feed, but I sure would go this route for a newborn before I trusted the FDA or the formula folks anymore.

We discussed this the other day in a related post, but just for the record, a few reports surfaced about a year or more ago showing that protein powders and additives from China (whey, soy, albumin) were contaminated with melamine.

Presumably anything using these Chinese protein additives would also be contaminated.

How’s that for truth in labeling?

“Made in USA” DOES NOT mean “No Chinese food additives.”

Check out the wholesale/bulk offerings on alibaba.com and be VERY afraid.

I'm sure the formula I give my baby is safe. We go out of our way to get the good stuff from China.

I don’t have kids and I my experience with them is limited, so if this question seems dumb... well, that’s the reason.

Why use baby formula? Isn’t breast milk free and healthy?
