Following the warning issued on Friday by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration about several food products, United States citizens got scared about the melamine contamination, although no cases of illnesses have been reported there due to the products.

The FDA recommendations also aim at retailers and food service operators, who should remove the possible contaminated products.

On Wednesday, the Thai FDA temporarily banned the sale and import of 10 dairy products from China, candies, buns and biscuits counting among them. This came after several Chinese milk powder products were tested positive for the industrial chemical, which lead to four babies falling ill and even dying in China.

The U.S. FDA guaranteed consumers that infant formula sold by companies complying with requirements of sale is safe, compared to formula bought from Asian markets, which could threaten consumers’ health.
