Here is an interesting twist. Each month FDA post products refused entry. The list can be found at the above link.

The nation's first manufacturer of MPCs, DFA's joint venture with Fonterra, Dairiconcepts, apparently had a returned item. So, it came back into the country a little shopworn.

According to a GAO study, several years ago, these "detentions" are little more than formalities. The product is likely to end up in some form on a shelf near you.

  1. Adulterated food additives,not legally approved as food ingredients by the FDA even when they aren't adulterated,but pushed upon us by the usual suspect (the farmer's best friend) DFA.
