The Environmental Health Directorate warned today that spreadable basil pate' (Stukku tal-Habaq) by the Three Hills Brand in 195g jars should not be consumed because  Epoxidised Soya Bean Oil and other substances exceed the level permitted by EU regulations.

The durability date and lot number of the product are  22/06/12 and L-HCIE

The producer had been ordered to withdraw the batch from the market and that is being done, the directorate said.

Further information is available from the directorate on  telephone number 21337333, or by calling personally at its offices at 37-39, Rue D'Argens, Msida or by email mhi@gov.mt
