A number of supermarkets have been ordered to stop selling a number of items in the last two weeks - as the Food Safety Authority of Ireland intervene to prevent members of the public from getting sick.
Food alerts are notifications issued by the FSAI to official agencies and food businesses or other businesses relating to an identified hazard i.e. a biological, chemical or physical agent in, or condition of, food/food contact materials with the potential to cause an adverse health effect.
Where there is a need for action to be taken, or to convey the information to a wider enforcement and food business community, the FSAI will issue a national Food Alert on the FSAI website
