I'm being very serious here, because it's a very bad situation.

To sum it up, milk powder in many halloween candies and snacks are VERY likely to be tainted with Melamine and other toxins, that could harm or kill children and adults across the world. Please send this to your friends because the word Needs to get out.

    I don't live in China. And I never heard of Domo candy.

    And last off all, make me.

    There is no need to be rude. Don't make me repeat myself.

    This could have potential for great lulz!

    I doubt this is a problem, China is notorious for poor health standards. The chemical is used as a preservative, probably added only for the locally distributed crap. Milk powder is a common ingredient found in most chocolate around the world.

    Judging by the amount of video annotations and the nature of his previous videos, he could just be pumping up his own channel or perpetuating a hoax.

    Well, I think you only get sick from it by chronic exposure, so unless someone had enough candy to last a while, you're safe. And that's only if it somehow slipped passed FDA's radar, which I highly doubt.

    Those videos are so annoying. I don't know what the point is with the over use of text pop-ups.

    I'm giving out $1 bills to people who ride the T (MBTA commuter rail trains). We've been having a lot of trouble with the T here lately, I saw on the news that an error resulted in commuters being overcharged for their trips.
