The Common Market for East and Southern Africa (COMESA) Competition Commission (CCC) has flagged three Indomie noodles flavours found to contain excess aflatoxins and pesticide residues.

Food safety tests conducted by the Food Safety Authority of Egypt found that Indomie’s chili packets and the chicken and vegetable flavor packets contained “aflatoxins and pesticide residues in quantities that exceeded safe limits.”

“The Commission would like therefore to alert the general public of the risks in consuming above Indomie instant noodles as established by the FSA and to exercise caution on the consumption of the same,” CCC said in a statement.

“Other than those three products, Indomie instant noodles were generally found to be safe for human consumption,” a statement shared by CCA indicated.

In addition, the producers of Indomie Egypt were urged to remove the claim written on the product packages regarding the benefits of vitamin B and mineral salts of iron, zinc and calcium.

In Egypt, already 733,340 cartons of different Indomie product flavors have been withdrawn from the market.

The authority added, in a statement, that the owner company was still continuing to withdraw its products that do not comply with food safety requirements, in addition to offering instant noodles without chili bags.
