El Conejo Blanco debe irse

Lo están recogiendo ya en Shanghai, Hainan, Australia, Nueva Zelanda, Reino Unido y hace días que está prohibido en Hong Kong, Taiwan y Singapur.

Mi favorito en la niñez...precaución, sí, sí...¡seis veces el límite legal de melanina!

In China, authorities were pulling White Rabbit candy from shelves in Shanghai
and the southern province of Hainan. They were the first public reports of
domestic recalls of goods other than milk products and milk.
In Hong Kong,
tests on White Rabbit showed it contained an "unsatisfactory" level of melamine
of more than six times the legal limit, according to the government's Center for
Food Safety.
There has been no public announcement of a nationwide recall of
the candy from China's safety watchdog. A woman who works at the propaganda
department of the quality body, the General Administration of Quality
Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, said that she did not know of White
Rabbit candy being recalled in China. She did not give her name, as is common
with officials in China.
It issued a recall list on Sept. 16 for 69 batches
of milk powder made by 22 companies. The only other recall list was on Sept. 19
for liquid milk.
The Shanghai government has urged a subsidiary of Bright
Food Group to stop the sales of White Rabbit candy — one of the best-known
candies in China — and pull them off the shelves, and to recall those for export
that are likely to have problems, it said.
The subsidiary, Guan Sheng Yuan,
has been making White Rabbit candies for almost 50 years, with exports to
Southeast Asia and Chinese communities overseas.
