Nestle Withdraws Nestle Farinha Lactea Cereal in the United States (November 3)
Tue, 11 Nov 2008 15:52:00 -0600
Nestle is withdrawing Nestle Farinha Lactea cereal in the United States. Nestle is taking this action as we have learned that the product may contain residual traces of a pesticide not currently approved for use on wheat in the U.S. While the pesticide is approved for use in Brazil and the noted levels are well below Brazilian standards, it is not used on wheat products in the United States and therefore there is no set standard for its presence in cereal. The pesticide is permitted in the United States on grain crops other than wheat.
