"Glutamate is found in most common foods such as wheat flour, tomato, green peas, onions and even breast milk. Traces of glutamates may occur from the natural ingredients used in making the product," the statement said.

The company said its food products "are of superior quality and completely safe for consumption" as well as compliant with all regulations.
