on

The Nestla Maggi fiasco was recently dissolved and the instant noodles hit the markets earlier last month. But things are not all right in Nestle India’s paradise, as suggests a recent report by Lucknow-based National Foods Analysis Laboratory. Nestle Indian questioned the validity of this test by stating that the lab is Lucknow-based National Foods Analysis Laboratory.

Reinstating that the Maggi Pazzta is 100% safe, Nestle India said that the National Foods Analysis Laboratory and its reports can not be relied upon.

“The media reports also mention that the tests have been conducted at National Foods Analysis Laboratory, Lucknow. The laboratory is not National Accreditation Board For Testing And Calibration Laboratories (NABL) accredited nor is notified by FSSAI. The results of the laboratories which are not accredited cannot be relied upon,” said a Nestle India spokesperson.
