SINGAPORE: Over 15 brands of China-made products have been taken off the shelves, amid growing consumer concern in Singapore over the tainted milk scandal. Major supermarkets such as Cold Storage and NTUC FairPrice are also playing it safe by checking that items made in other countries do not contain dairy from China.
Since Friday, boxes of China-made food items have been piling up in a storage area at Sheng Siong supermarket.
The chain has removed over 20 products as a precautionary measure, including bread and biscuits. These include Want Want Crunchy Wafer, Oreo Wafer Sticks, Snickers Peanut snack-sized bars, and Dove Hazelnut Milk Chocolate.
Cold Storage and NTUC FairPrice have also recalled items such as condensed milk, crackers and butter.
What is safe now? Absolutely nothing...all of us are being poisoned daily by all sorts of consumables including news items! The world is now in self-destruct mode.Hallelujah!!!
