Simeon Collins, director of Grenada's Bureau of Standards, indicated the improperly labeled toothpaste was believed to contain toxins including diethylene glycol, thickening agent often used as a low-cost substitute for glycerin.
Diethylene glycol is blamed for the deaths of at least 94 people in Panama since July 2006 after a misleadingly labeled shipment of the solvent, which originated in China, was mixed into cough syrup.
Other suspect items seized from a shipping container from China included soap and preserved fruit.
Collins said the consumer goods with murky origins were seized because they violated the Caribbean island's labeling standards. No tests would be performed on the suspect goods, he said.
"We will be working with the Grenada's solid waste management authority to ensure that all the goods are totally destroyed," Collins said. -
