China's Food Safety


China needs to pay closer attention to it's countries food safety and inspection because "tainted milk" should not be an issue.

Recently, China had another scare with tainted milk products currently on the market. As you may remember, in 2008 there was an issue with the tainted milk, or a trace of something harmful in the products. More than 300,000 fell sick and six children died. So as you may think, when traces of tainted milk were recently found on the market, people must of started to worry, along with China's food safety department and dairy product companies.

For those of you who don't agree with my take on this, if China promised "changes for the country's food safety" after the 2008 scandal, why is this happening again? After the first issue, they promised us that this wouldn't happen again. Think, if you were a consumer of the milk, wouldn't you be afraid now? China needs to take action immediately and "crack down" on the health codes to prevent this. In my opinion, I find this unacceptable. People should not have to be concerned when they want a nice, cold glass of milk.
