Singapore calls back Everest Fish Curry Masala from India due to elevated levels of ethylene oxide, a pesticide unfit for consumption. Hong Kong's Centre for Food Safety flagged the issue, prompting action from Singapore's Food Agency. Importer Sp Muthiah & Sons Pte. Ltd. instructed to conduct a thorough product recall. While ethylene oxide is allowed for spice sterilization in Singapore, its excess in the blend poses health risks. Consumers urged to seek medical advice if consumed. Everest is yet to comment on the matter.
