The Camden City School District said some milk cartons were accidentally filled with a “non-toxic consumable sanitizer,” according to a statement posted on Facebook. “No students are currently ill but were sent to the hospital as a precaution,” the statement said. At least 25 students were hospitalized, KYW-TV reported.
The district’s announcement worried the community, with one Facebook commenter saying that “the entire quality system is in question.” Although it appears there have been no serious side effects from the sanitizer, the exposure raises concerns over how the accident happened.
The cartons were filled with the sanitizer, sealed and shipped out with the regular milk cartons, the statement said. Since then, the milk has been pulled from the shelves and will not be served until the school district’s investigation has concluded.
