The Thai Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on Friday, October 21st, ordered a selling suspension of all Mie Sedaap instant noodles from Indonesia, after they detected ethylene oxide, a substance commonly found in pesticides, in Mie Sedaap flavours sold in Thailand.

 

The FDA conducted the test after the Singapore Food Agency reported the presence of ethylene oxide in Mie Sedaap Korean Spicy Soup instant noodles and Korean Spicy Chicken instant noodles on October 6th. Later, the Thai FDA initially stated that the exact flavours were not imported to Thai market.

 

However, the flavours sold in Thailand were initially taken for a test. Two lots of Mie Sedaap Korean Spicy Chicken, one dated 25 Nov 21 and expired 25 Nov 22 and another one dated 07 Dec 21 and expired 07 Dec 22, found the presence of the dangerous substance.

Thai FDA protecting citizens from pesticides.. how novel.

Only on imported stuff though.

Big news, actually.  Mie Sedaap is about as popular in Indonesia as Campbell's soup is in the US.
