Botulism warning over korma sauce jars

The Food Standards Agency is advising people not to consume specific jars of Loyd Grossman Korma sauce. This is because of the risk of botulism poisoning.

Only one jar from the batch is known to have been contaminated with the bacteria Clostridium botulinum, which causes botulism, but the Agency is advising people not to eat products from this batch as a precautionary measure. The full press release from the FSA is below and is on the OIC website.

People in Orkney concerned about the alert can contact Orkney Islands Council’s environmental health team on 873535.
