What is this? Some nuts from Bolivia may have a harmful mold called aflatoxin. This mold can make people sick if they eat too much.

What's happening? The nuts are being checked because they might have too much aflatoxin. They should not be eaten right now.

Does this affect me? If you have nuts from Bolivia at home, you might be at risk. Check where your nuts came from.

What should I do? Do not eat the nuts. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you feel sick after eating nuts.
