Alert Message:
HARTFORD,CT Commissioner Jerry Farrell, Jr. today warned consumers not to eat or serve Nestles Farinha Lactea toddler cereal, imported from Brazil and reportedly distributed by Brex American of Miami, Florida until further notice. The product has been found to contain unacceptable levels of a pesticide.
The cereal was initially discovered by Department food inspectors as a mislabeled item at Mercearia Brasil, 107 Triangle Street in Danbury. Two hundred one containers of the product were removed from store shelves. Although sold primarily in Brazilian language communities, the Nestles Farinha Lactea product labels nevertheless must be in English, and these were not, Farrell said.
Thank you,
