The Thai Food and Drug Administration (TFDA) and the Central Investigation Bureau have raided an illegal meatball producing factory in the Khlong Luang district of Pathum Thani Province. The factory is alleged to have been distributing substandard meatballs to over 40 outlets in Bangkok and neighbouring provinces for about two years.
