Sodium nitrite is carcinogenic possible in combination with fish. The product was discovered in November last year by the Dutch NVWA, which controls food safety. The company was fined again for that. The substance is not currently being used, the NVWA says in a comment. The regulator has early this month additional requirements again.
Soother attracts sackcloth. The company publishes as of Monday all inspection and audit reports on its website. “By being open about the results of government inspections, we hope to make a contribution to the trust of society in food safety,” says director John Soother.
The published documents show, according to the director insight into some warnings and fines stemming from inspections. “Our starting point is always to fully comply with laws and regulations. We have attracted enormous shortcomings that still have taken place.”
The fish processors under the close supervision of the Dutch food inspection and falls into the category of ‘red’, the most stringent category. The company was in 2012, involved in an international salmonella outbreak from infected salmon. This caused several people dead and thousands of consumers were ill. During checks in subsequent years, even altrijd defects were identified. That’s according to the regulator gave rise to the company in December to place last year in a special audit trail. “The company is closely monitored to see if everything remains in order,” the NVWA. That route runs at least until September, but may be extended.
