Shrink in the Kitchen

Has everyone noticed that Italy has as of today banned the worldwide sale of buffalo milk mozzarella originating in Campagna due to high levels of the cancer-causing agent dioxin in the cheese? Italy and South Korea banned it weeks ago. (BBC story)

Ah, but then why is this product still available in stores in the United States? Believe me, if the Italian government is banning a food product, which is like Cameron Diaz announcing she no longer feels beautiful, something is dreadfully wrong. Don’t buy the cheese.
