Cancer Milk??

A little bit about our common life here in China.
The month of February, Wes and I have been living on a mao (or a dime) Our school couldn't pay us income on-time for some reason or another... so we have been pinching our jiaos (coin monies) We didn't go to the big supermarket- but rather bought items as we need them (right before cooking) around our apartment. A couple times I sent Wes out with a list of veggies and then sometimes a box of milk... followed by - NOT THE CANCER MILK :) haha. I am sure this is NEVER a phrase you have used in America, the UK or Australia, but it has become a common phrase in our house :) haha.
Why you might ask?? What is this cancer milk??
Recently there was a new story about one of China's largest suppliers of milk ... the milk has been tainted with cancer causing toxins. YIKES.
Check out the story-
