‘The foods delivered to Russia by Valio, a Finnish company, raise increasingly more concerns from Rospotrebnadzor,’ RIA Novosti quotes head of the state consumer rights watchdog Gennady Onischenko as saying.

‘The melted cheese packs imported from Finland by Valio, a company that is associated with the market economy and good quality in Russia, unfortunately come to look more and more suspicious,’ Onischenko said.

The executive explained the worries had to do with the use of some exotic oils in the production of the cheese in question; he did not specify what specific problems this implied, however.

‘I reserve the right to keep the public intrigued,’ Onischenko pointed out.

The expert promised Rospotrebnadzor would carry out the necessary investigation in the nearest future.
