I'm kind of confused about the acrylamide-in-formula situation. In the FDA's press release, dated March 25, it does have the statement about "lower levels" being found in dairy foods and infant formulas, but a couple of paragraphs later, it says that "no ... or trace amounts" have been found in formula:

"FDA is expanding its acrylamide testing program and plans to conduct tests on approximately 40 new infant formula samples. Although results from other infant formula samples tested by FDA indicated the products contain no acrylamide or trace amounts of acrylamide, the FDA will conduct further tests because of the importance of formula as a sole source food for many infants."
