Cadbury chocolate tainted with melamine



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

And I thought Hershey's chocolate was bad, Cadbury is even worse. At least Hershey chocolate is only tasteless. Here's yet another example of a failed outsourcing program that delivered a better bottom line to the company but a terribly flawed product. The regulation system in China deserves plenty of blame (and China will lose valuable business because of the repeated problems) but the companies also ought to step up and recognize their own failings. It's their name on the product so they need to do a better job if they want to maintain any trust with their customers.

NOTE FROM JOHN: I never liked Cadbury anyway, but I'm never touching them again. This raises a much larger question: Just how many companies are using China to make our food? I'd never heard that, I thought China was primarily making clothing (and computers). But food? Why would anyone trust eating anything made in China nowadays? I'm worried enough whether my clothing has any creepy carcinogens in it thanks to the Chinese. But food? No way in hell. So just how much of our food, if any, is made in China?
