Melamine: It’s what’s for dinner!
It started out as a pet food contamination crisis – dozens of dog and cat food brands associated with Menu Foods were recalled because pets were dying. An investigation was launched, and as these things so often go, it just keeps getting bigger and bigger and scarier and scarier. The latest bit – has melamine entered the human food chain? (Hint – that was a rhetorical question.) What the hell is going on, and by the way, where’s the FDA?

I know a guy who works for the CDC. He said their funding has been cut more in the past 4 years than it ever has been in its history. They’re spending all of their time justifying their positions to the Feds rather than actually, ummm, controlling disease. I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s part of it.
Boy, could I appreciate it if you logged this comment over at S&R, as well.
I will, no problem.

Kidney failure? It’s not from drinking, it’s from the melamine!
