The Centre for Food Safety today urged consumers not to eat four kinds of pork products of Taiwan Farm Industry Co. as they were made with substandard lard.
The centre has asked traders to stop supplying the products and to recall them.
The affected products include: Fried Pork Floss 270g, Fried Pork Gloss with Seaweed 270g, Fried Pork Floss 300g and Fried Pork Floss 180g.
The centre received notification from the Taiwanese authorities last night that these products were made with substandard lard produced by Cheng I Food Co., Ltd, and a total of about 37,380 cans of the affected products were exported to Hong Kong.
The centre will ask the importers concerned to submit transaction records of their food to facilitate tracking, marking and sealing of the possibly affected products.
