Since then, the product has remained off shelves while Wal-Mart has carried out seventeen different tests to determine the cause of the small number of complaints it has received.
The latest advice from Wal-Mart’s testing laboratory shows trace levels of melamine. Because of the low levels that were found, the laboratory has recommended additional testing. Nevertheless, the product remains off shelves and Wal-Mart continues to take the extra precaution of placing a computerized block on the product at the cash register. Moreover, the company encourages customers who may have purchased this product to return it for a full refund.
Consumers may call 1-800-WALMART for more information.
