STC withdraws products from market

Having had a very long two chats with one of my buddies AND rivals over at STC they have posted this on their website. Some BIG numbers are being spoken off. As was product recall, compensation for customers and so on (see below quote for more).

''STC Nutrition products were designed with the sole purpose of delivering premium grade nutritional products at an affordable price.

This has always been our goal.

However, over the last few days it has come to our attention that the formulations that we specified for the manufacture of our products have been severely compromised without our knowledge. We have been shocked to discover that that at some point over the past few months, our formula have been tampered with by the manufacturers of these products and although we believed we were being supplied premium quality proteins made to British Standards, this has apparently not been the case.

We are absolutely appalled at this situation and are currently taking legal advice.

We would like to apologize to our faithful customers who have stood by us and are in the process of refunding those who have been sold products from these tainted batches.

We have suspended the selling of our products for the short term until we can change to a supplier who can guarantee us verifiable, periodic quality control checks on all our products.

We will be back!

If you need to contact us, email us here but please remember that we are in the middle of pending legal action and may not be able to comment on some aspects of this unfortunate situation.''

In the mean time one of the few companies with products NOT manufactured by Vydex or someone, or another contract manufacturer as above, whose products are straight up is, of course, The Whey Consortium.
