WASHINGTON, Sept. 26 (UPI) -- U.S. food safety officials said seven Mr. Brown instant coffee and milk tea products were recalled because of possible melamine contamination.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said the products, manufactured in China by Shandong Duqing Inc., were recalled by the King Car Food Industrial Co. Ltd. The products are Mr. Brown Mandheling Blend Instant Coffee (3-in-1), Mr. Brown Arabica Instant Coffee (3-in-1), Mr. Brown Blue Mountain Blend Instant Coffee (3-in-1), Mr. Brown Caramel Macchiato Instant Coffee (3-in-1), Mr. Brown French Vanilla Instant Coffee (3-in-1), Mr. Brown Mandhling Blend instant Coffee (2-in-1) and Mr. Brown Milk Tea (3-in-1).
The agency said it hasn't found any melamine contamination of milk-based products imported into the United States from China and has not found any Chinese-made formula on U.S. retail shelves. The FDA, however, said consumers should avoid eating any White Rabbit Creamy Candy after the New Zealand Food Safety Authority found high levels of melamine contamination.
