                    [Summary] => The Bureau of Food and Drugs (BFAD) warned the public yesterday against borax-laced sago or tapioca after it found two sago manufacturers in Bulacan using the chemical in their products.


The BFAD said sago samples from Pilexton Marketing and Bentex Marketing, both based in Obando, Bulacan, tested positive for borax. The two manufacturers supplied sago to at least three firms in Binondo, Manila.


The bureau issued cease-and-desist orders to the two sago makers last Jan. 19 and asked them to reply in 15 days, which was ignored.
