This article is about how the powder milk in china is contaminated with melamine, and made 1,253 babies get sick. As i was reading the article i was really shocked that they knew the milk was making babies sick and they didn't do anything about it. When i was done reading this article i was wondering if anyone sued the company cause it was in there product and they knew about it, and didn't do anything about it. I don't understand why they would keep selling their product when it was contaminated, cause they know that the word would go around and people would talk and stop buying their product. Also they just made a big publicity issue now that they didn't fix there product, so that ended up hurting them a lot. I always never understood why babies had to drink powder milk anyways? Aren't they suppose to drink milk that comes from there moms? If people knew that the powder milk has been contaminated then why didn't they start buy it from other company's that made powder milk? Was it the only brand of powder milk that was contaminated or was it in every other powder milk place? Why did babies back then not get sick from the powder milk? Did they always use the same ingredients? After I read this article i was wondering why the owners of the company didn't think about all of this stuff before they put it out on the market. This article really made me think about a lot of stuff now like can i really trust the things i eat or drink now? And it made me wonder what other stuff that i use or ate is contaminated. Now that i think about it can i really trust the things that come from China? First we find out that all of their electronics and toys are contaminated with lead and now this? These are the things we have to think about before anything else happens.
