“The reason is the possible presence of the toxin cereulide. The toxin was detected in raw materials from an external supplier (vegetable oils). Symptoms after consuming a product high in the toxin cereulide may include vomiting or diarrhea within six hours of consuming the product. Such symptoms are similar to those of food poisoning, as well as allergies to cow’s milk proteins,” the regional Rospotrebnadzor clarified.
Experts added that these mixtures are not subject to mandatory labeling in Russia. Therefore, consumers need to take this information into account when choosing products.
