Toxic Dairy Products, Toxic Yoghurt, and now.. Toxic White Rabbit Candy!

The dairy crisis in China has never been worse, and today, I read in the Straits Times that the popular White Rabbit Candy was found to have traces of melamine, the toxic industrial chemical blamed for sickening 53,000 children in China. I predict a real collapse of the dairy industry here. I've stopped buying milk products altogether. Here what it says:

"SINGAPORE has found traces of a toxic chemical in a third Chinese-made dairy product as a scandal over tainted milk spreads across Asia, authorities said on Sunday.
Singapore's Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority (AVA) said samples of White Rabbit-brand Creamy Candy imported from China were contaminated with melamine, an industrial chemical that can cause kidney stones and lead to kidney failure."
