Urgent ‘do not eat’ warning issued as viral Dubai-style chocolate bar recalled
Inspired by the ‘Dubai Chocolate’ trend, a viral chocolate bar was urgently remembered for a health risk for customers.
Food Standards Agency (FSA) should not be purchased or eaten by those who have peanut allergies.
Although the FSA is not marked in the list of materials, chocolate contains bar peanuts. This means that it poses a “serious risk ına to those with nut allergies.
The agency added that he could not communicate with the producer of the products Black Sea Trading Ltd and so that he called on the distributors to pull the Noesis rod from the shelves.
Recommendations from FSA: ın Do not buy this product and do not eat, especially if you have purchased, especially if you are allergic to peanuts.
“Throw the product at home and contact your local commercial standards in Great Britain or Environmental Health Officers in Northern Ireland and let you know where you bought it.”
‘Dubai’s Love’ chocolate bar is inspired by a viral food trend that emerged in 2024. It focuses around the chocolates with a creamy peanut fill created by a chocolate in Dubai.
Taking millions of opinions in the social media platform Tiktok, the popularity of the bar has been so concentrated that the price of pistachios nuclei increased. Experts, until April prices from $ 7.65 to $ 10.30, he says.
Last week, FSA issued a warning on the proliferation of imported Dubai chocolate bars to be sold in the UK.
The agency said that some of these products will not contain a full component list or allergen labeling because it is not designed for sales in the UK.
Bars may also contain additives and colors that are not allowed in the UK market.
The guardian experts are currently investigating the products to determine the scale of the problem and exemplify and work with allergy charities to raise awareness.
Professor Robin May, the chief scientific consultant of FSA, said, “The majority of foods in the UK are safe, but some imported Dubai -style chocolate products do not meet our standards, and that there may be a risk of food safety for consumers with allergies.
“If you want to buy a Dubai -style chocolate, we recommend that you adhere to reliable retailers as you will use for your weekly store, because it is more likely to make products for the UK consumers and therefore safe for food.
“The UK Act requires the emphasis on food tags of 14 allergen in the product, but some imported products may not do so. You can find more information about Food.gov.uk.”
