Go To Rio --The Food is Safer in Brazil

Countries around the world are working to ban the import of melamine-contaminated products from China. But in the U.S., melamine-products and ingredients continue to flow through ports of entry, almost unchecked. Brazil has banned all food products from China.

Food and Water Watch is a nonprofit consumer organization that works on food and water safety issues.
