Hi, fyi

Local food makers are becoming embroiled in mounting scandals over an
alleged reluctance to take action over food contamination and cases of
poor quality standards.

The latest stink bomb comes from Maeil Dairies, which was recently
forced to destroy more than 50,000 packages of its ``Premium Gung''
powdered baby milk after health authorities found bacterium in them.

Also suffering public relations disasters are Lotte Confectionery and
Crown Confectionery, two of the country's larger snack makers, who
were recently forced by the Canadian government to recall some of
their most popular cookies and biscuits sold in the country over
concerns of allergic reactions.

Sure. My friend got the info off of a Chinese news site. I just posted
what came up when i searched for the story on Google. I'm always
rather sensitive to food quality scares.
