Guoli Naiyou Dairy Product Marketed by Minute Maid/Coca-Cola
(China Daily) A 10 year old boy in north-eastern China has died following consumption of a beverage manufactured by Coca-Cola–Authorities subsequently confirmed that organic phosphorus, a toxic pesticide was found in the strawberry milk and juice drink Guoli Naiyou.
The health scare came after Chu Shiwei said that his wife and 10 year old son, became violently ill from sharing a bottle of the Minute Maid strawberry flavored beverage.
Chu recalls that his wife returned home in Changchun, Jilin Province at about 8:30 pm drank less than 1/2 a bottle of the strawberry beverage before handing the remainder to their 10 year old son to finish–about 5 minutes later, Chu said that his wife was on the floor convulsing and foaming at the mouth, it was not until after an ambulance had arrived that his son began crying in pain.
Both victims were rushed to a nearby hospital where Chu’s son died about 5 hours subsequent to the food poisoning.
