The USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has determined that based on currently available data and information, the consumption of pork, poultry, eggs, and domestic fish products from animals inadvertently fed animal feed contaminated with melamine and melamine-related compounds is very unlikely to pose a human health risk.
This determination is based on the findings of a safety/risk assessment as well as the results of validated testing for melamine concentration that has been conducted on tissue samples of hogs and chickens exposed to the adulterated feed.
As a result of these findings, FSIS has established that the pork and poultry products are "not adulterated" and can therefore receive a federal mark of inspection. Thus, all such animals that were being held on farms have been released and may be offered for slaughter for human food.
