No toxic mineral oil in our food!
- Mineral oil in foods
Laboratory tests by foodwatch have, for the third time, found food products contaminated with harmful mineral oil. foodwatch has tested products on sale in France, the Netherlands and Germany, and for a first time also included products from Austria and Belgium. 19 products have been found to contain the particularly dangerous aromatic mineral oils (MOAH). According to the European Food Safety Authority, MOAH is suspected to be carcinogenic and genotoxic. Those hazardous substances have no place in our food! foodwatch calls on the Commissioner for Health and Food Safety, Stella Kyriakides, and the decision makers of all the EU Member States to protect all consumers from those invisible contaminants in food products by immediately recalling all products tested positive and adopting a zero-tolerance rule for MOAH contamination in ALL food categories across the EU!
