“The AVA has detected high levels of Fipronil, a wide-spectrum pesticide, in (the) iceberg lettuce,” said the agency, which has directed the importer to recall the product. The recall is ongoing.
Iceberg lettuce sold at NTUC Fairprice under the “Pasar” brand name comes with a supplier code 40, AVA said. A supplier code is a unique code that identifies the supplier of the goods.
According to nst.com.my, it added that consumers who have bought the affected vegetables may contact the respective supermarket outlets.
