What is this? Some food flavourings contain quinine. Quinine is safe in small amounts, but the law says how it must be made. Some batches were made with a bad solvent and were not labeled correctly.
What's happening? Denmark found flavourings with quinine that did not follow the rules. The solvent used was not allowed, and the label said “natural” when it was not.
Does this affect me? This affects foods sold in Denmark that use these flavourings. If you bought a product with quinine flavour in Denmark, it might be affected.
What should I do? If you are worried, ask your pharmacist or doctor before eating the product. Do not eat it if you are unsure.
