MFDA Bans Sale of Master Foods' Creamy Chicken & Mushroom Sauce

The Maldives Food and Drug Authority (MFDA) has banned the sale and use of Master Foods' Creamy Chicken and Mushroom Sauce, following concerns over missing allergen information on its label.

In a statement, the MFDA confirmed that the product, manufactured by Mars Australia Pty Ltd, contains eggs as an ingredient, but the label does not disclose this information. The manufacturer has ordered its removal from the market, and the MFDA has enforced the ban in the Maldives due to potential health risks to consumers with egg allergies.

The World Health Organization’s International Food Safety Authorities Network has been informed of the issue, ensuring global awareness of the product recall.

Consumers seeking further details can contact the MFDA at 3014361 or 7603204.
