(NaturalNews) The state-run Chinese news media have admitted that the practice of lacing animal feed with the toxic chemical melamine is probably widespread nationwide. The Nanfang Daily referred to the practice as an "open secret" in the industry.

The chemical's presence in China first emerged in September, when more than 56,000 infants became ill and at least four died after consuming melamine-tainted milk. The case led a number of Asian countries and companies to order tests or restrictions on Chinese food products, and to a European Union ban on any Chinese baby food products containing milk. The head of China's food quality watchdog agency resigned over the scandal.

In early November, Hong Kong officials announced that eggs from China were also contaminated, and at least four brands have tested positive for melamine so far. This came only days after 1,500 wild Chinese canines known as "raccoon dogs" died of kidney failure at a fur farm after eating melamine-contaminated feed.

NPN is widely used in animal feed throughout the world... there should not be any finger pointing here... just become aware of what YOU are dealing with when it comes to your own, family's, or your livestock's/pet's health.
