bunda Jemima, saya sudah coba buka web-nya. Di situ disebutkan nama lain konjack ad. konnyaku. Kalau saya lihat di bungkusnya Nutrijell, ingredientsnya salah satunya adalah bubuk konnyaku. Jadi tidak hanya merek jelly saja, konnyaku itu juga ingredientsnya jelly. Kalau gitu, Nutrijell juga bisa menyebabkan tersedak, ya ? salam, femmy It's a seemingly harmless-looking treat, yet it's been reported that a type of gel-like candy has killed at least 21 children over the last few years. According to Dr. Steve Galson of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), gel candy is dangerous for two reasons: its plug-like shape poses a choking risk, and a binding ingredient called konjack doesn't dissolve in the mouth. The FDA recently issued many recalls and an import alert for gel candy. Still, the candy remains on store shelves across the country.
Look for gel candies with konjack in them. Konjack is spelled many different ways, including konjac, conjac, kanjac, yam flour, glucomannan, konnyaaku and konnyaku. Still, Galson points out, the name isn't always listed on the package. If you find gel candies at your local grocery or drugstore, talk to the store manager.
