On Saturday, the agency reiterated that it was continuing regulatory testing of other Mie Sedaap instant noodle products, and working with importers and Indonesian authorities to investigate and rectify the cause of the ethylene oxide contamination.
Should it detect presence of the pesticide beyond stipulated maximum levels, SFA will initiate recalls of the affected products.
“Consumers who have purchased the implicated products are advised not to consume it,” said SFA.
“Those who have consumed the implicated products and have concerns about their health should seek medical advice. Consumers may contact their point of purchase for enquiries.”
