The Agri-Food & Veterinary Authority of Singapore (AVA) has detected melamine in two additional products imported from China.
They are New Sshmallows Mallow Dippers-Strawberry Flavour, and Silang - House of Steamed Potato - Potato & Tomato Cracker. Both the products contain milk as an ingredient.
The amount of melamine found in these products, together with eight others that have been highlighted by the AVA, is higher than what can be considered as naturally occurring.
This brings the total number of affected products to 10. All importers will be required to destroy the tainted products under AVA's supervision.
The other products that were earlier found to be contaminated with melamine are:
i) Yi Li Choice Dairy Fruit Bar Yogurt Flavoured Ice Confection;
ii) Dutch Lady Strawberry Flavoured Milk;
iii) White Rabbit Creamy Candy;
iv) Dutch Lady Banana Flavoured Milk;
v) Dutch Lady Honeydew Flavoured Milk;
vi) Silang - House of Steamed Potato - Potato Cracker;
vii) Xu Fu Ji Puffed Rice Rolls - Butter Corn Flavour; and
viii) Xu Fu Ji Puffed Rice Rolls - Cheese Flavour
AVA has suspended the import and sale of all milk and milk products from China since September 19, 2008. Anyone finding such products still on sale should inform AVA immediately.
