Why
Pesticide residues may be present in vegetable food products, but the EU has set limit values for pesticides. Excessively high levels of the pesticide chlorpyrifos have been found in this product. A health risk cannot therefore be ruled out. What matters is that consumers do not have a high intake of pesticides over a longer period. It is not the individual meal that is decisive, but rather intake over a longer period. Consumers will therefore not experience acute symptoms.
What to do
If you have the product you should dispose of it or return it to the shop where it was bought.
