    There also was an article in Philstar that around 3 hospitals may have unknowingly given children the milk. Some got kidney stones as a result I think. What were those people who okayed the milk in China thinking?

    Lipton milk tea powder recalled in HK

    THE HAGUE -- Anglo-Dutch company Unilever confirmed Tuesday it was recalling brands of Lipton milk tea powder in Hong Kong after they were found tainted with "small quantities" of an industrial chemical.

    "Small quantities of melamine were found in the milk tea powder of the Lipton brand sold in Hong Kong and Macau," Unilever spokesman Gerberg van Genderen told AFP.

    The company recalled "a few thousands boxes" of its brand Lipton milk tea.

    "As far as I know, the product was manufactured in Hong Kong," van Genderen said.

    The Hong Kong Centre for Food Safety has urged the public to stop drinking the product in the latest fallout from a toxic milk scandal which has made some 53,000 babies ill and killed four in mainland China.

    Countries around the world have banned or restricted imports of Chinese milk products after it emerged that they contained the industrial chemical melamine, usually used in the making of plastic.

    Yun melamine ba standard ingredients sa mga gatas? at nasobrahan lang? o walang melamine dapat sa gatas?

    Nilagyan ng melamine yung gatas para mapeke yung protein content at pumasa sa government standards. Mas mura kasing bumili na lang ng scrap melamine from factories, instead of fortifying the milk formula with real protein.

    Ang matindi pa nito, hindi lang milk products ang delikado. Even processed meats, eggs, poultry and fish may have already been tainted with melamine, since animal feed stock produced in China have also been reportedly adulterated. Eh syempre hindi lang Chinese domestic market ang gumagamit ng animal feeds, ine-export din yan.

    Melamine is said to be non-toxic in small doses, but if this accumulates via chronic exposure over time, it can lead to renal failure.

    how sure are we na yun mga restos/blended drinks kiosks and bars/cakes and pastries stores hindi gumagamit ng Made in China milk from the start? syempre, pag pampatipid ng overhead, gagamitin at gagamitin yan for profit.

    so will this milk scare extend to every shop/store na with dairy products? mukang dun patungo ah ... baka pati yun mga gumagawa ng native pastillas sa probinsya tapos dinadala dito gumagamit din ng ganyan gatas since mas lalo hindi controlled dun
