Latest consumer advisory from AVA

AVA has just issued a consumer advisory on the three additional China-made items that are contaminated with melamine.

And guess what? There are 17 Malaysia-made biscuits which are also found to be contaminated with melamine and has been ordered to be removed from shelf and to be destroyed. As 12 out of the 17 affected products are from Julie's brand, all Julie's brand biscuits are required to be withdrawn from sale. Now this is really gg to affect deeply the operations of Perfect Food Manufacturing (M), Julie's brand manufacturer.
Although there is only low level of melamine discovered in these products, AVA "advises all consumers who bought the implicated products not to consume them". so i discarded 5-6 packets of Julie's wheat crackers, very sayang to throw away unconsumed food leh but better to be safe than sorry. I have already been eating alot of them for years man.

And even malaysia made biscuits are also affected... now how am I gg to survive my break time in sch without biscuits? although AVA also indicated tat locally made Khong Guan and Meiji are tested to be free from melamine, i guess home made biscuits are the best lar.

I wonder if the prices of the non affected biscuits will rise as a result of this? Let's observe then...
