■대만에 이어 태국도 유해성분 검출 '신라면블랙' 유통 중단
식품의약청 "소비자 안전 위해 제품 3천여개 회수…분석중"
태국 정부가 최근 대만에서 유해성분이 검출된 농심 신라면 블랙 컵라면 일부 제품의 유통을 중단했다.
26일 현지 언론에 따르면 태국 식품의약청(FDA)이 소비자 안전을 위해 '농심 신라면 블랙 두부김치맛' 일부 제품의 유통을 중단시켰다고 밝혔다.
식품의약청은 유통 기한이 다음 달 4일까지인 제품 480개, 5월 8일까지인 2560개 등 총 3040개를 회수하고, 제품 분석 결과를 기다리고 있다고 전했다.
식품의약청은 유통기한과 제품 생산 정보 등을 확인하고 신뢰할 수 있는 판매처에서 라면을 구매해달라고 당부했다.
이러한 조치는 최근 대만에 수입된 신라면 블랙 제품에서 유해성분이 검출된 데 따른 것이다.
