Acephate and methamidophos in green beans from Kenya
What is this? Green beans from Kenya have small amounts of two pesticides called acephate and methamidophos. These are not allowed in food sold in Europe.
What's happening? France found these beans at the border and stopped them from entering the country. The risk is low, but the beans should not be eaten.
Does this affect me? Only if you bought green beans from Kenya recently. Most beans in stores are safe.
What should I do? If you have these beans, throw them away. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you feel unwell after eating them.
