While nine of the family ate Suantangzi, remaining did not have it because they did not like the taste. The dish is a thick type of noodle made from fermented corn flour.
The nine who ate it felt ill within hours of eating and eight were dead by 11 October. The ninth member, a 47-year-old woman, treated in hospital but finally died on Monday.
According to reports, the family was poisoned by toxic bongkrekic acid found in noodles.
Following this incident, the National Health Commission(NHC) on Tuesday issued a warning for people to avoid taking foods with fermented rice and flour.
