FSA adds to contaminated food list
McDonalds added to list of those affected
The Food Standards Agency has released an update on food products contaminated with the illegal dye Sudan I, with McDonalds on the list of those affected.
Several dressings supplied by McCormick to the fast food giant are on the list of products that have been withdrawn. McCormick also supplied some ready meals affected to Sainsbury’s.
Also added to the list are some products in the Aunt Bessie’s range from Tyson Foods, and a batch of worcester sauce flavour crisps from Walkers.
The FSA repeated its advice that “there is no risk of immediate ill health but it is sensible to avoid eating any more. We will continue to take action to remove these and minimise the risk to consumers.
“If people have any of these foods at home they are advised not to eat them and to contact the store they bought them from for a refund.”
