Chinese herbal chain Eu Yan Sang has recalled its Infant Brown Rice Si Shen Powder from stores after a consumer found a piece of wire mesh in it.
Consumers who have purchased the product are advised not to consume it, said a statement by the Agri-Food & Veterinary Authority of Singapore (AVA) today (Nov 26).
AVA said it had received feedback from a member of the public on Nov 23 about a piece of wire mesh that was found in a tin of the rice powder.
AVA is working with Eu Yan Sang to investigate the matter. “While investigations are ongoing, the product has been voluntarily recalled by Eu Yan Sang as a precaution,” it added.
The item is sold out on its Singapore website. The prices shown include the one on special offer at $13.20 while the normal price is listed as $16.50.
