What is this? Peanuts from China have small amounts of mold poisons called aflatoxins. These poisons can be harmful if eaten a lot.

What's happening? Spain found too much aflatoxin in peanuts from China. The country stopped these peanuts from entering.

Does this affect me? If you bought peanuts from China, check the package. These peanuts may still be in stores.

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