<p><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The U.S. Food
and Drug Administration (FDA) has increased inspections and product testing
efforts in response to the melamine contamination problem which originated in
Chinese dairy products. As a result of the FDA's on-going testing program, the
agency has detected melamine contamination in Blue Cat Flavor Drinks. The
distributor of the product, Tristar Food Wholesale Co. Inc., initiated a recall
of several flavors of Blue Cat Flavor Drink, based on the FDA’s findings.
The FDA advises the public not to consume this product and recommends that
retailers and food service operators remove the product from sale or service.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
