On October 16, 2025, a significant food safety incident was reported involving the detection of myrobalan in various types of paste. This issue originated from Turkey and has been categorized under control incidents, indicating a potential risk to consumers.
Myrobalan, a natural substance derived from the fruit of certain trees, is often used in traditional medicine and as a dye. However, its presence in food products, particularly in paste, raises concerns regarding food safety and consumer health. The detection of such substances can lead to adverse health effects, especially for individuals with sensitivities or allergies.

It is crucial for consumers to be aware of this issue and to check the ingredients of any paste products they may have purchased, particularly those sourced from Turkey.
Food safety is paramount, and incidents like this highlight the importance of stringent quality control measures in food production. Consumers are advised to stay informed and report any adverse reactions or concerns related to food products to health authorities.
