Imported Baby Formula May Contain Melamine

Baby formula is perhaps one of the most regulated and watched foods on the market. Many people don’t seem to care quite as much about what they are consuming and the potential harm it causes, but when it comes to their baby’s food, they want to find something that is as healthy as possible. That’s why you will probably want to be extra cautious when it comes to a baby formula that comes from China, as it has been found sometimes to contain melamine.

It could, in theory, be a good thing to reuse oil from restaurants so that it does not all go to waste. However, it shouldn’t be sold as if it is new oil. There were many Chinese oil companies that were selling recycled oil as new oil due to the lack of government regulations.
