An instant porridge has been withdrawn from sale in South Africa after three young children died reportedly after eating it.
Police spokesperson Lt Col Siphokazi Mawisa told local newspaper the Daily Maverick the children, aged 18 months to four years, had complained of stomach aches after eating Top Score Instant Porridge, before they died on Friday.
Supermarket Spar, where the porridge was purchased, has instructed all stores to remove the product from its shelves.
The Namibian company which made the porridge, Namib Mills, said although, “there is currently no evidence linking our product to this unfortunate event, we are taking the matter very seriously”.
