Cadbury Recall all Chinese-made products: doubt on safety

Cadbury have issued a recall of their Chinese-made products, this follows tests of their chocolate which casts a doubt on their safety. There is deep fear that these chocolate bars could actually contain melamine-laced milk.

Melamine-laced milk has been blamed for killing four children in China, while making at least 50,000 ill. Cadbury’s are to recall 11 of their confectionery items that are made in their Beijing factory. These are then distributed in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Australia.

Cadbury’s has said that all of its dairy suppliers have been cleared by government milk testing. It is the tests that have cast doubt on the integrity of a range of our products manufactured in China.

    All Cadbury products should be boycotted until they clearly mark the source of the products and all chinese-made Cadbury products should be immediately taken off shop’s shelves until they have been rigidly tested .

    All food in shops should clearly state the country of origin , regardless of any famous British or Western brands on the boxes !

    Why is the Government doing virtually nothing about this dastardly behaviour ??

    I have some Cadbury Chocolate bars that I bought at Fry’s Supermarket. They have no date or country of origin shown on them, unless you can read their coded numbers. They don’t want you to know that. I just had another piece of this great chocolate so if I die you will know who to blame.

    My mother recently bought some caramel Cadbury bars. I think it was last month. They are safe, aren’t they? She has eaten several & been fine. But just to be sure, I had to inquire. I would hate for anything to happen to her.

    By the way, she bought them at Walgreen’s.
