Carbendazim in green chili from Rwanda
What is this? Green chili peppers from Rwanda have a small amount of a pesticide called carbendazim. This pesticide is not allowed in food sold in the EU.
What's happening? France stopped some green chili shipments from Rwanda because they had carbendazim. The risk is low, but the peppers should not be sold.
Does this affect me? If you bought green chili peppers recently, check where they came from. Only peppers from Rwanda might be affected.
What should I do? If you have green chili peppers from Rwanda, do not eat them. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you feel unwell after eating chili.
