"Wheat gluten and melamine really don't go together.

For one thing, melamine is considerably more expensive than wheat
gluten. No unscrupulous exporter is going to cut wheat gluten with
melamine to increase his profits."

This guy may or may not know what he's talking about, but the New York
Times is running a story that says Chinese companies often use melamine
to bolster the protein count in animal feed. Apparently they buy
"melamine scrap," left over from the production run.

Don't buy food from China until they have control of the products
going into the food.
