What is this? Some jams from Syria may contain two things they should not: a preservative called benzoic acid (E210) that is not allowed, and a substance called E220 (sulphite) that was not listed on the label.
What's happening? These jams were stopped at the border in Cyprus because they broke food safety rules. The products should not have been sold.
Does this affect me? If you bought jams from Syria recently, check the label for E220 or benzoic acid (E210). If you have allergies, this could be a problem.
What should I do? Do not eat the jam if it lists E220 or E210. Ask your pharmacist or doctor if you feel unwell after eating it.
