A message has gone viral with the claim that duplicate Amul butter is being packed in China.
While sharing a video, a man details how to tell the difference between fake China-made Amul butter and the original one. The suer details how one can tell the difference by looking at the packaging.
“Duplicate Amul butter has come in the market. Everyone must watch this video before buying Amul butter, then be careful while buying Amul butter,” the message read.
If one were to look at the original Amul butter packaging, then it is clear that the same green dot can be found.
Reacting to the viral video, Amul took to Twitter and clarified about the same.
“Issued in public interest by Amul. This is for your kind information that a fake message is being forwarded on WhatsApp and Social Media platforms regarding duplicate Amul Butter packed in China. We wish to inform you, both packets of Amul Butter shown in the video are genuine and manufactured in India by Amul. As per advisory of Food Safety and Standards Authority of India, all new dairy products must show the veg log on the front of the pack. The video clipping shows comparison between the earlier pack and new pack of Amul Butter and has been used to create misinformation and spread fear and concern among the consumers. A legal notice has been issued to the individuals of Srinagar who are involved in creating this fake news story. We request you to kindly share the message with your family and friends and sensitise them.”
