Food Safety Alert: Contamination Detected in Bean Curd Products
On November 14, 2025, a significant food safety incident was reported involving varieties of bean curd. The State Administration for Market Regulation has identified the presence of Sunset Yellow FCF/Orange Yellow S (E 110), a food additive, in these products. This detection raises concerns regarding the safety and compliance of the affected bean curd varieties.
Sunset Yellow FCF is a synthetic dye commonly used in food products to enhance color. While it is approved for use in various food items, its presence in bean curd is alarming, as it may not align with regulatory standards for this type of food. The origin of the issue has been traced back to China, where these bean curd products were processed.
Consumers are advised to exercise caution and check for any recalls or advisories related to bean curd products. It is essential to ensure that food items are free from unauthorized additives that could pose health risks. Regulatory authorities are expected to take necessary actions to address this contamination and ensure that food safety standards are upheld.
As always, individuals should remain vigilant about the food they consume and report any suspicious products to local health authorities. The safety of food ingredients and compounds is paramount in protecting public health.
