September 30, 2008 – In light of recent events in China, we would like to reassure our valued consumers about the safety of Kraft products, especially those containing milk ingredients.

Kraft does not use Chinese milk ingredients in US products or in any products made outside of China. Of the products we make in China, some do contain low levels of milk ingredients from that country. And we’re testing these ingredients to ensure their safety. While Kraft exports some of these products into a limited number of Asian countries, we do not export any products containing Chinese milk ingredients into North America, Europe, Latin America or Africa.

There have been questions about the ingredients used in our Oreo products made in China. Oreo products do not contain Chinese milk ingredients, no matter where they are made or sold.

We have full confidence in our food safety standards and systems. As always, our highest priority is to ensure the safety of our products and consumers around the world.
