The Dutch police have been alerted and are conducting an investigation to clarify the case. Authorities are collecting testimonies with the support of the NVWA and the collaboration of Haribo itself.
The official advice is that consumers do not consume the suspicious products and return them directly to the manufacturer for analysis and safe disposal.
