The European Commission is imposing bans on imported milk products and other foods will be tested for melamine.
Maybe we just don’t realise how lucky we are in this country, we might be in a recession but our food safety standards remain high.
Still don’t think I’ll be having a takeaway anytime soon – but then I’ve always been wary of them!!!!
Yes, there was a dog food scandal earlier this year which I read about on Greytalk.com – dog food ingredients imported from China were contaminated with melamine and many dogs died.
It makes me so angry – we trust another country to do quality control checks comparable to our own, when what we should be doing is testing each batch as it arrives to make sure it’s safe to sell in our country.
By the way, Kate – if you want to email me and the other address doesn’t work, try the address I’ve used here in the comments! 😉
