Jump To Comment: 1Check your long rice for GM
Tesco Ireland has withdrawn some of its own-brand US long grain rice as
a precautionary measure following the withdrawal of two products in the
UK that allegedly contained genetically modified (GMO) rice. A spokesman said
that any American long grain rice to be packed for Tesco in future will be
tested and verified as GM-free.
"Whilst this is not a food safety issue we of course take it very seriously. We are working with our suppliers and the relevant authorities and as a precaution we've withdrawn previous stock of Tesco American long grain rice in 500g and 1kg packs," he siad.
