“A random sampling has been carried out taking into account regional representation based on a risk assessment and testing of Kinder Joy, Kinder Joy for Boys, and Kinder Joy for Girls chocolate products registered in Indonesia. The laboratory testing showed that the three products were tested negative for Salmonella contamination,” wrote BPOM in its statement, as reported by Liputan 6, Saturday (30/4).
