Food Safety Alert: Pesticide Residues Detected in Vine Leaves
On October 10, 2025, a significant food safety incident was reported concerning the presence of methoxyfenozide pesticide residues in vine leaves in various forms. This alert was issued through the Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed portal (RASFF), highlighting the potential risks associated with the consumption of these products.
The vine leaves, commonly used in various culinary applications, have been found to contain levels of pesticide residues that exceed safety limits.

Consumers are advised to be cautious and check the source of vine leaves before consumption, particularly those purchased from markets or stores that may not adhere to strict food safety standards.
Authorities are currently investigating the extent of the contamination and are expected to take appropriate measures to ensure that affected products are removed from the market. It is crucial for consumers to stay informed and prioritize food safety by being aware of potential contaminants in their food.
