Hungary's Mineral Water Maker Under Scrutiny
- 2 Aug 2010 1:00 AM
"Retailers are clearing their shelves of bottles of Visegrádi mineral water after consumer magazine Interpress found that they contain high amounts of fluoride, which could be dangerous to children under seven.
Visegrádi then sued the magazine, but the case was rejected.
Supermarket chains CBA and Auchan immediately took the water off their shelves.
The French company said in a statement that it would be willing to distribute the products if Visegrádi points out the risks on its labels."
