International agency finds cancer causing chemicals in popular Indian spice brands

Food regulators in Hong Kong and Singapore released a report and warned the masses to avoid adding spices products from India as they were tested with cancer-causing substance Ethylene oxide. The list of spices includes three spice products from two big Indian companies MDH and one from Everest that have exceeded the permissible limit of chemicals. The Singapore Food Agency (SFA) also ordered a recall of Everest's Fish Curry Masala.
