They have attacked a few times but have always come out fine.(See Below)<BR/>White Rabbit Candy May Be Tainted<BR/> <BR/>Jeanette Pavini<BR/>Reporting<BR/><BR/>(CBS 5) BURLINGAME White Rabbit is a popular milk candy brand made in China. It's sold in dozens of countries including the U.S.<BR/><BR/>Health officials in the Philippines ordered it removed from shelves after they claim they found formaldehyde in the candy -- a cancer-causing chemical.<BR/><BR/>But the Bay Area company that distributes it, said the tainted product is counterfeit.<BR/><BR/>Queensway Foods in Burlingame is the sole U.S. distributor for the popular White Rabbit Candy imported from China, and the company said there's no evidence of formaldehyde tainting in authentic White Rabbit Candy. <BR/><BR/>"All of our products that has been imported has been permitted by the FDA to be sold in retail markets," said <BR/>Victor Lo of Queensway.<BR/><BR/>He noted that it's very easy to tell if the White Rabbit on the stores shelves is counterfeit. The counterfeit will not have the Queensway logo on the front.<BR/><BR/>In addition to packaging without a logo, the counterfeit candy does not include nutritional information or an expiration date like the authentic candy.<BR/><BR/>A report released by the Shanghai Consumer Testing Services found no detection of formaldehyde in the product provided by the manufacturer. <BR/><BR/>The manufacturer said counterfeiting domestically and overseas is rampant.<BR/><BR/>This follows several other product safety concerns from China. The Chinese government has been on the defensive since wheat gluten spiked with melamine was found in pet food, and antifreeze was found in counterfeit Colgate toothpaste. Both products were made in China. <BR/><BR/>Just last month, 60 people were sickened by a snack food which contained seasoning, that the maker said came contaminated with salmonella from China.<BR/><BR/>Lo said consumers can rest assured that the product his company is bringing in is not effected. <BR/><BR/>I willl have to try some.<BR/>RTAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
