The Chinese tainted milk scandal has reached the Netherlands, reports Thursday’s Volkskrant. The food safety body VWA is removing products containing Chinese dairy products from the shelves for ‘precautionary’ tests.

Chinese cookies and White Rabbit sweets which contain minute quantities of milk are being tested, says the Volkskrant.
A spokesman told the paper that importers have been asked to stop imports until the products can be tested in a lab.
In China, milk has been mixed with melamine, a product used in plastics production, to camouflage the fact the milk has been thinned with water. At least 53,000 Chinese children are now sick and four babies have died.
