ATLANTA - Traces of a chemical used in rocket fuel were found in samples of powdered baby formula, and could exceed what's considered a safe dose for adults if mixed with water also contaminated with the ingredient, a government study has found.The study by scientists at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention looked for the chemical, perchlorate, in different brands of powdered baby formula. It was published last month, but the Environmental Working Group issued a press release Thursday drawing attention to it.
The chemical has turned up in several cities' drinking water supplies. It can occur naturally, but most perchlorate contamination has been tied to defense and aerospace sites.
Now they're going too far.. who knows how long this has been going on.....

It's a bad thing to give your baby rocket fuel. That being said, there are so many possibilities with babies eating rocket fuel that it's too awesome to ignore.

It's all part of the plan to find babies who can metabolize rocket fuel as food, and fly around without the assistance of technology.
