More products confirmed to contain illegal dye- Para Red
The Food Standards Agency advises consumers that it would be sensible not to eat products comtaining Para Red.
09/05/05 The Food Standards Agency (UK) has been informed by food businesses that a further 12 products have been confirmed to contain spices contaminated with Para Red, an illegal dye.
These products are being withdrawn from sale by the companies concerned. The Agency's advice to consumers remains the same.
At the levels found, the risk from eating any of these foods is very small, but as a precaution it would be sensible not to eat them.
These latest products were made using the same batch of contaminated spices as those products identified yesterday by the Agency. They were all made using contaminated spices supplied by Lion Foods in the UK.
The Agency will continue to work with the UK food industry to establish whether any other companies have been supplied with contaminated spices.
