Food Safety Recall Round-up 15-21 February

Findus Beef Lasagne recalled in Hong Kong

15 February - The Hong Kong Centre for Food Safety (CFS) urged the public not to consume a variety of beef lasagne as it might be adulterated with horse meat which has not undergone tests for veterinary drugs.

The 360g Findus Beef Lasagne was imported by PARKnSHOP from Britain and tests results were pending for the presence of phenylbutazone (bute).

“The CFS received notification from the Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed (RASFF) of the European Commission earlier today that a British company detected horse DNA in its own-brand beef lasagne which was produced in Luxembourg,” said a statement.
