Royal Orient bamboo shoot food recall

Overview

A recall has been issued for Royal Orient brand bamboo shoots, specifically the ‘STRIPS’ and ‘SLICES’ varieties, due to the migration of Bisphenol A (BPA) from the internal coating of metal cans into the food.

Initially reported in Germany, the recall involves 567-gram cans imported by Asia Express Food B.V. from China. The issue was subsequently flagged by the European Union’s Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed (RASFF), leading to further consumer protection alerts in Hungary. Authorities have warned that BPA leaching can damage hormonal and immune systems, advising consumers not to consume the affected products.
