Two vegetarian food products have been recalled after it was found that the packaging labels did not declare the presence of gluten and the authorities detected the allergen in the products.
In a statement on Thursday, the Singapore Food Agency said the manufacturer, Liang Yi Food Industries, has since been directed to recall the products – Liang Yi vegetarian black pepper chop and Liang Yi vegetarian roasted meat. Gluten is a type of protein naturally found in wheat and other grains, and poses a food safety issue to consumers who are intolerant of or allergic to it.
“Consumers who have purchased the implicated products, and who are intolerant of or allergic to gluten, should not consume them,” SFA said, adding that those who have done so should seek medical advice if they have concerns about their health.According to Singapore’s food regulations, food products containing ingredients that are known to cause hypersensitivity must be declared on food packaging labels in order to safeguard public health.
