White Rabbit Candy with Formalin

Distributors of best-known Chinese-made creamy candy, White Rabbit, together with three other brands named as Milk Candy, Bairong Grape Biscuits and Yong Kang Foods Grape Biscuit was ordered by Bureau of Food and Drugs (BFAD) for pullout.

They were given 15 to 30 days to pull out their products from the market after BFAD tests discovered that the four products contained formaldehyde or formalin which is known for embalming or preserving dead bodies.

China’s products these days were gaining bad credibility for exporting fake and dangerous goods.

Chinese officials admitted that their nation is having a serious problem with food hygiene and safety standards but they blame the foreign media for spreading exaggerated reports regarding the issue.
