What is this? Whole linseeds are small brown seeds. They can have a natural chemical called hydrocyanic acid if not stored right.
What's happening? Some whole linseeds sold in Europe have too much hydrocyanic acid. This makes them unsafe to eat.
Does this affect me? This affects people in Ireland, Austria, Belgium, and other listed countries. Check if you have whole linseeds from these places.
What should I do? Stop eating the seeds. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you feel sick. Return the seeds to the store.
