You're being paranoid. Most of the time when folks are getting foam, it's because they are opening them too soon, and the co2 hasn't fully integrated into the solution.
Here's the answer they're usually given

Although we recommend measuring priming sugar by weight, not by volume, 3/4 cup seems to be the standard volume measurement most folks use, so I don't think that's the issue.
A lot of folks who are opening their bottles earlier than the 3 weeks we repeatedly discuss here experience gushers because the carbonation hasn't really gone into solution fully yet, so the bottles gush.
There's some other things we can look for, but let's rule out the usual one most folks preset with, openning the bottles too soon.
Could this be your situation?
