After weeks of correspondence (Case 19308882) they wrote:
“Please refer to my email on 20/10, where I advised that we are unable to assist you further on this matter, as all available information has already been shared. Please note that while any further correspondence will be logged on your file, it may not be responded to.”
One slice of fortified bread is fine. Ordinary daily intake of bread + cereal + pie/pastry + biscuits easily exceeds 300–450 μg — well over the 200 μg level previously advised for over-50s because of B12-masking risk.
A substantial part of Waitrose’s core customer base is over 50. They have no system to identify folic-acid-free products and no plan to warn customers about cumulative exposure.
@ClareCraigPath has highlighted the issues with unmetabolised folic acid and the limits of the safety data. Retailers following the mandate still have a duty to consider cumulative effects under the Food Safety Act.
@ClareCraigPath @waitrose It is almost impossible, I know the effects SFA had on me and I know the big difference now I’m free of it but it means a very restricted diet. Gov have absolutely no idea how hard it is to avoid or the extra cost sourcing ingredients without the nasty synthetic drug!View quoted post on X
