ANMAT Bans 'Mami Keto' Line and 'Copito de Nieve' Dessert Nationwide Over Fake Registrations

The actions follow a consumer tip, with inspections confirming missing or falsified sanitary registrations.

Overview

  • Two dispositions published on October 15 in the Official Gazette — 7558/2025 and 7566/2025 — prohibit manufacture, fractioning and sale of the flagged products across Argentina.
  • Products sold under the Mami Keto brand, including a 'Pan premium keto y vegano' and items like yogurts, cookies and crackers, lacked RNE/RNPA and were deemed apocryphal after being traced to two addresses in Buenos Aires.
  • The Buenos Aires food-safety authority conducted on-site inspections and seized unregistered items, and the national ban extends to listings on e-commerce platforms.
  • A powdered frozen dessert labeled 'Copito de Nieve' was detected in Córdoba with nonexistent RNE/RNPA; provincial lab analysis confirmed false labeling, prompting a nationwide market withdrawal.
  • ANMAT and INAL ordered the removal of any other foods using the same fake registration numbers under Argentina’s food law, noting unregistered products pose potential health risks.
