Milk off shelves as China's safety scandal grows (AP)
Saturday, 09.20.2008, 05:36am (GMT)

A child receives an ultrasonic inspection for kidney stones at a children's hospital in Chengdu, in southwest China's Sichuan province Friday, Sept. 19, 2008. Thousands of worried parents have filled hospitals, many hovering over sons and daughters hooked to IV drips after drinking milk powder tainted with melamine, a toxic industrial chemical that can cause kidney stones and lead to kidney failure. Some 1,300 babies, mostly newborns, remain hospitalized, with 158 suffering from acute kidney failure.  (AP Photo/Color China Photo)AP - China's food safety crisis widened Friday after the industrial chemical melamine was found in milk produced by three of the country's leading dairy companies—prompting stores, including Starbucks, to yank milk from their shelves.
