Viral Video: Maggi packets thrown away in dustbin, stray pigs eat it all

New Delhi, June 5: Nestle India on Thursday, June 4 took Maggi Noodles off the shelves. The company took the decision as many states in the country banned the instant noodles.

It has been claimed that the company has been using MSG while manufacturing Maggi and hence it may cause serious health hazard. Many people across the country showed protest against the product and burnt Maggi packets.

Meanwhile, a video has gone viral on internet in which many stray pigs were seen eating Maggi packets which were thrown away in a dustbin by a shopkeeper.

While it has been claimed that Maggi contains high levels of MSG (Monosodium glutamate) which is harmful for human consumption, should it be left on road for stray animals?
