Maggi

Lead remains in the soil for hundreds of years. Children may be contaminated more during play than food intake .Nature has seen to it that even when lead levels remain high in the soil ,it is not taken up by the plant beyond a limit .High ph level and organic vegetable matter in the soil,will reduce this further.Thus Maggi is no different from any other human intake,cooked or raw,water and air.Such attenuated national concern must focus on lead and other natural contaminants,not on a product.We then miss the wood for the trees.Sadly though In the process ,we have allowed a mere noodle to dethrone overnight ,our long standing Enemy No 1.Our neighbour is not pleased !.
