Cadbury recalls Chinese chocolates over contamination fears

Cadbury recalls Chinese chocolates over contamination fears

Cadbury, the British sweet maker, has recalled all its China-made chocolates after tests "cast doubt" on their safety.

If Cadbury is a British sweet maker how come it is making them in China for the British market? Profiting out of poisoning kids? It's a scandal.

Sweet and sour.

jailhouselawyer,

For exactly the same reasons BT outsources to India ... profit over and above national patronage.

At least Cadbury are doing something -
'While other dairy producers initiated recalls and suspended production, Nestlé, putting public relations before safety, asserted that "that none of its products in China is made from milk adulterated with melamine." Shortly thereafter, the Hong Kong government found traces of melamine in a Nestlé milk product manufactured in mainland China. The traces were low, according to the government authorities, but it was recommended that it not be given to children. Following on a recall by leading supermarket chains, the product was eventually recalled at the request of the government. Nestlé responded with a press statement that all its milk products manufactured in China are "absolutely safe".'
