Food safety recall round-up 18-24 August 2017
Fipronil findings prompt dressing recall
Norway: Orkla Foods Norge has withdrawn 16 dressings due to traces of fipronil (0.094 mg/kg - ppm) in egg yolk powder used in them.
The amount of the insecticide in the Idun dressings does not constitute a health hazard, said Mattilsynet.
Orkla received egg yolk from a German producer. The egg yolk powder constitutes a maximum of 1% of the finished product.
