ALERT: Irish shops recall product due to presence of banned pesticide

Irish shops have recalled a food product due to the presence of banned pesticide Ethylene Oxide. 

The Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) flagged the problem in a batch of Mama Sita's Lumpiang Shanghai Mix (Fried Spring Roll Seasoning Mix) with the best before dates of 22/11/22. 

It's stated that although consumption of the contaminated product doesn't pose an acute risk to health, continued consumption over a long period of time may cause health issues. 

It's recommended that exposure to the substance must be minimised. 

Point-of-sale notices with information on the implicated batches will be displayed across affected stores.
