Reason for recall : Discovery of the presence of an additive prohibited for the manufacture of this type of product : Rum Ether.
Additional information : Rum Ether is an additive created by a complex mixture of volatile substances obtained by distillation of the reaction products of pyroline acid and ethyl alcohol under oxidizing conditions, in the presence of manganese dioxide and sulfuric acid.
According to a report, l’EFSA (European food safety authority) indicates that among the 84 volatile constituents which make up Rum Ether, some are carcinogens and genotoxic (ie they compromise the physical or functional integrity of the genome and may in particular cause of disability transmitted to descendants and / or cancers), and therefore the use of Rum Ether is “worrying” for health.
Terms of the callback : It is recommended to destroy the product or return the store for a refund.
