What is this? Some rice from Italy has a small amount of a farming chemical called tricyclazole. This chemical is not allowed in rice sold in Europe.
What's happening? Finland found this rice and told stores to stop selling it. The amount of chemical is low, so it is not thought to be dangerous.
Does this affect me? If you bought rice from Italy recently in Finland, check the package. If you are not sure, ask the store.
What should I do? Do not eat the rice if you are unsure. Ask your pharmacist or doctor if you feel unwell.
