Category 2 Food Alert for Information: Batches of Clearspring’s Organic Sesame Oil and Organic Toasted Sesame Oil are being recalled due to the presence of the unauthorised pesticide ethylene oxide.
Message:
Certain batches of Clearspring’s Organic Sesame Oil and Organic Toasted Sesame Oil are being recalled due to the presence of the unauthorised pesticide ethylene oxide. This pesticide is not authorised for use in foods sold in the EU. Although the consumption of the contaminated product does not pose an immediate risk to health, there may be health issues if there is continued consumption of ethylene oxide over a long period of time. Therefore, exposure to this substance needs to be minimised. Point of sale recall notices will be displayed in stores supplied with the implicated batches.
