All Kinder products produced in China or imported into the Chinese mainland (including products in transit and on sale via authorized channels) have no link to the Belgian factory involved in the salmonella infection, thus are not part of the recent recall, said Ferrero Rocher in a statement on Sina Weibo on Saturday night, China News Service reported.

Ferrero Rocher added in the statement that it has suspended production at the factory in Arlon of Belgium and is actively working with local food safety authorities to investigate the salmonella incident.
