In recent times, the safety of some brands of noodles were called into questions, with prompt and even some erratic decisions from some quarters.
In late April, the Tapei Health Department conducted a random inspection of various brands of the noodles available in the city and detected traces of carcinogenic substance in at least one variants of a brand. The detection resulted in a recall of the batches of the noodle variants involved in Taiwan and Malaysia which is a standard procedure. Since the detection, several countries have taken decisions to safeguard their population. Some countries even instituted outright ban on the importation of a brand of noodles in an erratic manner without proper investigation.
