Japan finds melamine in Chinese-made pumpkin steam buns
Telegraph article
Extract:
"An investigation was launched after traces of the chemical were detected in buns which were made in China and served in Japan by the buffet restaurant company Nilax Inc.
Milk tainted with melamine, a substance commonly used to make plastics and tan leather, has been linked to the death of four babies in China and sickness among tens of thousands of children.
While there were no reports of illness among Japanese consumers, the nation's confidence in the food industry has been severely dented by a raft of scandals, ranging from tainted rice to faked best before labels."
