In recent days, some people experience aches and pains, fevers and cystitis. The fault lies with a piece of cheese. Or a slice of salami tasted as an aperitif. We enter the heart of another summer infested with harmful medicines and foods and alarms about this or that brand. Fortunately, the Ministry of Health monitors the chemical risk and microbiological risk of our food at the table. Here are the products to keep an eye on in the points of sale. So that they do not get exposed by mistake and also end up in our cart.
Butter is a special guard
Beware these harmful medicines and foods are already outlawed. The food blacklist is quite extensive. It ranges from mineral water to sweets and cookies. In the last month, ready meals, sauces, soups and spices have been added. But butter is a special guard. Gluten can cause severe symptoms in people who are allergic, even if present in minimal quantities. Urgent recalls can be read on the Ministry of Health website, with precise indication of brands and lots.

So let’s check the brand of the butter already stored in the freezer, before whipping the risotto for a guest. Let’s check the Fontina cheese from Valle d’Aosta, the offending lot causes even serious intestinal disorders. The eyes are also on the Irish cheddar, a cheese that in some cases is inhabited by the bacterium Listeria.
The pitfall that comes in the snack
Bread and salami were once a healthy snack. However, since both are no longer made at home, anything can end up in the dough. In that of the sandwich, for example, we can find ethylene oxide. It is a carcinogenic anti-mold for our body, adopted to disinfect sesame seeds. Europe is keeping a high guard on this spice. And Italy is even more so: ethylene oxide popped up in a batch of gomasio. Also in the soft capsule that wraps a very popular iron-based supplement.
