#RecallMAGGI Noodles from the market! Don't Feed Lead!

The Issue

We are a nation of #Maggi lovers!

I was shocked to know that high levels of MSG and lead were found in Maggi. Apparently the levels of lead were seven times more than what is allowed.  

I am speechless and outraged because too much MSG and lead causes severe health problems!

I cannot see our children and youth face the scenario of being afflicted with learning difficulties, vomiting, headache, nausea and breathing problems.

Nestle needs to become responsible to its customers and cannot sell substandard products.  When Lucknow Food Safety and Drug Administration (FDA) found lead and MSG, I was horrified. Maggi is poisoning our generation and Nestle needs to take action immediately!

Sign my petition and ask Nestle to recall Maggi from the market! We want Maggi that does not make us sick.

In the past, Nestle has recalled Häagen-Dazs Chocolate Chip Ice Cream in USA, Kit Kat chunky peanut butter bars​, Kit Kat chunky hazelnut bars, Kit Kat chunky choc fudge bars​, Kit Kat chunky caramel bars, Kit Kat chunky hazelnut multipack, ​Kit Kat chunky collection giant egg​; all from UK, Germany, Switzerland, Malta, Austria, Singapore, the Philippines and Canada​.

Nestle can do this for Maggi as well. If thousands of customers demand Nestle to recall Maggi, they will have to rise above profiteering and prove that it values the lives of its Indian customers!

They have recalled products in developed countries before. Nestle can not sell substandard products in India either!

Sign my petition and share it with your friends.

Let’s hold Nestle accountable and make Maggi MSG and lead free!

Responded
Thank you for contacting us regarding MAGGI in India. We have read your petition and appreciate receiving your feedback. As you have noted, we have already issued a withdrawal of MAGGI noodles from the market in India due to an environment of confusion for consumers and while we work with the authorities to clarify the situation. We agree that India is a nation of MAGGI lovers and the trust of you, our consumers, is extremely important to us. Our highest priority is the safety and quality of our products, which undergo rigorous testing before being allowed on the market. Please rest assured that in India we have the same stringent safety policies as everywhere else in the world. Nestlé India have conducted tests on around 1,000 samples of MAGGI in our own laboratories and asked an independent lab to assess a further 600 product samples – representing a total of 125 million packets of noodles. These tests found that lead levels were well within food safety limits specified by Indian authorities. We do not add MSG to MAGGI noodles in India, however the product contains glutamate from hydrolysed groundnut protein, onion powder and wheat flour. Glutamate produces a positive result in a test for MSG. For now, MAGGI has been withdrawn from the market. We are working hard to resolve this situation and aim to have your favourite noodles back on shelves as soon as possible. For more information, please see this dedicated page: http://bit.ly/1Jk5Moz Thank you for taking the time to contact us. We appreciate your trust and will do all we can to keep it.
