Optifast Chicken Soup

[normieg 0]

I was told that in our area we cannot have access to the Optifast chicken Soup. I found some on Ebay from Australia and ordered it. My husband is concerned about why I wasn't able to get hold of any in our area. Does anyone know of any reason to doubt the safety of getting this product from Australia?

Here in Ontario Canada, Optifast is only available by prescription. A friend of mine ordered it from Ebay from somewhere in the US, and it was stopped at the border, it was not allowed to enter Canada and she lost her money.

I dont think it has anything to do with safety of the product, just different regulations in different countries.

It will be interesting to see if the Soup actually gets to you.

I was told on Thursday that they are no longer making the chicken Soup, only Tomato, because the chicken (and the Peanut Butter bars and oat bars) were made in China so they closed those operations when all of the tainted milk, etc. started popping up. I guess they are trying to get those flavors going in a different location but not soon enough to help us.

BTW, Nestle now owns Novartis.

I live in Australia and consume Optifast chicken Soup and it says on packet product of Germany. Couldn't find anywhere on box or in product info about being made in China.

Im from Australia and if you ordered it from here I wouldn't doubt the safety what so ever.

I would be more concerned about ordering it from China.

You can get Optifast from pretty much anywhere here.
