      ContainED lead - past tense is critically important. There is nothing wrong with sugar on the shelves today. This is old news, it is a prosecution detailing the reason why Chelsea sugar was in short supply for a while during the pandemic in 2021.

      From the linked article:

      Before choosing this ship, New Zealand Sugar Company was advised the vessel failed a survey report on 3 September, meaning it was not fit to load and transport bulk sugar. Prior to its departure, the vessel was cleaned, and a cleanliness report certified the vessel’s hold was in a fit state for the stowage and carriage of raw sugar.

      However, the cleaning was not effective, and the cargo of sugar became contaminated with lead during the journey from Queensland. This contamination may have been potentially exacerbated by a broken pipe aboard the vessel that spilled water into the sugar during the cargo unloading process by contractors.

      Here's their mistake, for which they plead guilty and were were prosecuted:

      The test result on 7 October showed high readings of lead contamination, but rather than take immediate action and stop production and distribution, they instead sought more testing which confirmed the same result.

      Ultimately it was their fault because they didn't act quickly enough to claw back the stock they had been manufacturing.

    • Are you talking about Pams Value White Sugar 1kg which is currently being sold for $1.99? The Chelsea one is $1.97/kg. You don't normally see Chelsea being cheaper than those budget brands.

        Not to mention it's literally the exact same product, from the same production line.

        • Really? So they're actually the same thing just like the milk products?
