Food Dye Alert

Reuters.co.uk reports:

"The food safety watchdog has advised people not to eat about 350 food products that have been inadvertently contaminated with an illegal dye that could lead to an increased risk of cancer.
The dye, Sudan I, was in a batch of chilli powder used by British tea and pickle maker Premier Foods to make a Worcester sauce that was subsequently used as an ingredient in a range of soups, sauces and ready meals.
'Sudan I could contribute to an increased risk of cancer,' Food Standards Agency (FSA) Chief Executive Jon Bell said in a statement on the watchdog's website."
