Another health scare - Nissin Instant noodles!!!

What?!! Another health scare?!!

This is ridiculous!

Nissin in Japan has recalled 500,000 of their cup noodles after an old lady vomitted and felt numbness in her tongue after consuming the cup noodles.

Investigations and checks showed that the cup noodles contained traces of paradichlorobenzene, a key chemical in insecticides.

By now most of the cup noodles that were distributed were already sold off the shelves...How are they going to recall the products?

This time round, the factory is not located in China...which means good and bad. Good is we know that probably the incident might not be the result of some unscrupulous businessman trying to sae money....The bad side of it is that contaminated food products are "venturing" out of China!! Nowadays, people has started to boycott china foods products or even any china products. (which i am already doing so) Now that this happened in Japan, are we going to boycott Japan proucts too?

I don't think so...cause eventually the technology coming out of Japan is too exquisite to resist...especially the Playstations and the Nintendo Wiis....Food products? Nah...i like sashimi and sushi too much to give it up...So far iz only one incident...and it's cup noodles for goodness sake...the last time i took cup noodles was like......when was it? probably ages ago...So no big deal for me...for now..unless more of Japans' food products are reported for health problems....
