Daily snapshot data starts accumulating once the scheduler runs — for now this is interpolated from the agency's first/last dates.

What is this? A food product from Uzbekistan was stopped at the border because its label is missing two things: the expiration date and the food-additive category.

What's happening? Latvia found the missing labels and rejected the shipment, so the food never reached stores.

Does this affect me? No. The product was stopped before it could be sold in Latvia.

What should I do? If you already have similar foods at home, check the label. If anything is missing, ask your pharmacist or doctor before eating it.
