Carcinogens Found in Chinese Milk

A milk scare has hit the country of China as the China Mengniu Dairy Co. discovered carcinogens in their milk products. The company destroyed the milk products, but the scare is very real. Government safety inspectors found milk with the chemical aflatoxin in a plant in China’s Sichuan province. Aflatoxin is known to be a cancerous toxin.

A spokesperson for Mengniu issued an apology and an assurance that they have destroyed the contaminated milk products before they hit the shelves.
