Ireland: Nigeria Taste Brown Beans Recalled

Recall of Nigeria Taste Brown Beans Due to Possible Contamination with Aluminium Phosphide

Country Of Origin:

Nigeria

As a precautionary measure, Jumbo UK is recalling all batches of Nigeria Taste Brown Beans, due to the possible risk of contamination with aluminium phosphide.  The dried beans were transported with envelopes of aluminium phosphide, which is used as a fumigant, and it can be highly toxic if it is consumed.  So far no beans have been found to be directly contaminated with aluminium phosphide.  In-store recall notices will be displayed in relevant retail shops supplied.

Consumers are advised not to eat the implicated brown beans. Anyone who may have already consumed these beans and is feeling unwell should seek medical advice.
