A favorite nutty item pulled from shelves due to risk of cyanide release
The recent discovery of apricot kernels releasing hydrogen cyanide when consumed has caused concern and even resulted in some products being pulled from supermarket shelves. One such product is Buram Nuts in Syrup, which has been recalled by Wholesaler Leo's Import Export & Trading Ltd. It has been confirmed by the Food Standards Agency that this product contains apricot kernels, making it unsafe for consumption.

The recall includes all best before dates for the 420g pack size. Customers who have purchased this product are advised to return it to the point of purchase for a full refund. The Food Standards Agency has issued a statement warning against the consumption of this product, stating that the release of hydrogen cyanide from the apricot kernels poses a serious health risk.

In light of this discovery, the Food Standards Agency urges anyone who has purchased Buram Nuts in Syrup to not consume it and instead return it to the store where it was bought for a refund. Alternatively, customers can also return it directly to Leo's Import Export & Trading Ltd for a full refund. The safety of consumers is of utmost importance and steps are being taken to ensure that this product is no longer available on the market.

This is not the first time that food products have been recalled due to safety concerns. Last week, McCain's issued an immediate recall for several products sold across the UK. An error in the compliance check process led to these items being distributed on the market without proper assessment. Additionally, in June, supermarket Iceland also issued a recall for their Golden Savoury Rice Steam Bags after it was found that they posed serious health risks.

It is essential for companies to thoroughly check and assess their products before distributing them to the market. The safety and well-being of consumers should always be a top priority. In the case of Buram Nuts in Syrup, the discovery of apricot kernels releasing hydrogen cyanide serves as a reminder to always thoroughly examine and test products before making them available for consumption. Customers should always feel confident and assured that the products they purchase are safe for consumption.
