Guess What's Inside Chuckie & Milo Chocolate Drink in the Philippines [UPDATED]

It looks like the number of cases concerning tetra packed juices, milk and chocolate drinks have been increasing in less than two years. Today, two mothers have posted their disgust and complaints about Nestle Philippines when they have discovered rancid and foul stuff in their store-bought Chuckie and Milo drinks.

In a Facebook post, a Filipino woman has discovered something gross inside Milo, a chocolate energy drink that can be consumed in a tetra pack from food company giant Nestle. She describes the unidentified, solid stuff as rancid and foul. She had feared that her daughter might have consumed too much of the drink that is why she has brought her to a hospital for observation.

In a similar rant, another woman has posted on Facebook about how Nestle's Chuckie tasted revolting and smelled as if it has been spoiled for a long time. The woman also posted a video of how they discovered the gross stuff inside.

ABS-CBN News reports that according to Nestle, the foreign matter is actually coagulated milk as tested by their Quality Assurance experts. The statement states that spoilage may have been the root cause when the chocolate milk has came into contact with heat and air, as they have also discovered a small incision in the pack.

Furthermore, they have hired a third party analyst to test several samples of the MILO ready-to-drink with similar batch codes from different stores and all have tested negative from spoilage and are all commercially sterile.

However, Philippine Daily Inquirer reports that the University of the Philippines Natural Sciences Research Institute Microbiological Research and Services Laboratory has conducted their own test, and the results show that the foreign matter is a mass of fungal hyphae.

"Spoilage and coagulation happen when milk gets into contact with air and heat for some time, allowing exposure to harsh elements in the environment. With exposure to the harsh elements in the environment, microorganisms, including fungi, can enter the product and cause the product to spoil," Nestle said in the statement.

Nestle Philippines has already responded to both allegations and have contacted both parties, as noted on the Facebook page of both parents.
