The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC), has notified Nigerians about the sale of unwholesome Mayonnaise branded (Whippy Real Mayonnaise) in Nigeria.

Its Director-General, Prof Mojisola Adeyeye, in a public alert yesterday said that the product was discovered following a consumer complaint received and investigated by the post marketing surveillance unit of the agency in Ilorin, Kwara State.

She said that the products were sourced locally from the manufacturer, SNF FOODS Limited, Onitsha, Anambra State, and though the products were still within shelf life, they have become rancid and exhibits a colour unlike from the original mayonnaise Adeyeye, however, implored distributors, retailers, and consumers to exercise caution and vigilance to avoid consumption, sale or distribution of the implicated batches of the unwholesome Whippy Real Mayonnaise.
