Overview
- The federal food‑safety portal lebensmittelwarnung.de posted the recall after lab tests flagged excess MOSH and MOAH in the product.
- The affected item is Shinode Original Premium Sushi Rice in 1 kg bags with best‑before 04.04.2027 and EAN 8005734100059, imported by Asia Express Food B.V.
- Go Asia says the rice was sold in stores across 14 German states, and customers should not eat it and may get a full refund at any branch without a receipt.
- Officials and the retailer report no illness cases to date, though MOAH can include cancer‑linked compounds and MOSH can build up in organs, with EFSA judging current MOSH exposure as low risk.
- Reports point to likely contamination routes such as recycled cardboard packaging, production lubricants, or exhaust from harvesting machinery entering the food chain.
