NEW DELHI: Nestle India on Friday rejected allegations that insects were found in its MAGGI noodles product, after news agency ANI reported India’s food regulator had taken cognizance ‌of social ‌media complaints and issued ‌notice ⁠to the consumer ⁠goods company.
Nestle India said in a statement that the concern was raised from an unverified ⁠social media account ‌and ‌that the account holder did ‌not respond to ‌repeated requests for the sample.
Testing of a reference sample from the ‌same batch at an independent laboratory notified by ⁠the ⁠Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) found no infestation, Nestle India said.
It added that quality records, test reports and a detailed representation had been submitted to the regulator.
