Kudos for food safety authorities

I must compliment the Chemistry, food and Drug division of the ministry of health for removing an unnamed brand of bottled coconut water from supermarket shelves because of its false labeling and contents. These and other unreasonable people that bottle commodities as such and other retail items, while flouting the given responsibilities and trust in giving to its customer the expected contents as appearing on the label package,as any deviation of the make up of the contents can be detrimental to the person purchasing and consuming the said commodity. In this case diabetics could be at risk if improper labeling exist. My further concern is that there are many brands of coconut water being sold in supermarkets and from purchasing them I strongly believe that most of these bottled products contain a percentage of pipe water and not pure as indicated on their label. I now buy directly from the coconut vendor and don't have to second guess the quality.
