What is this? Some corn snacks from Mexico and the US have a food colour called E 110 (Sunset Yellow FCF) that is not allowed in Europe. The labels on these snacks may also be wrong.
What's happening? These snacks were sold in many EU countries, including Malta, Germany, and France. They should not have been sold because the colour is not approved.
Does this affect me? If you bought corn snacks from Mexico or the US, check the label. You may have this product.
What should I do? Stop eating the snacks if you find them. Ask your pharmacist or doctor if you feel unwell.
