Moldy Cheese Scandal in Romania: ANPC Orders Product Recall
A recent inspection by Cristian Popescu Piedone, president of Romania's National Authority for Consumer Protection (ANPC), revealed a concerning discovery: a batch of moldy cheese made from reconstituted milk powder. The inspection took place at an undisclosed location in Romania. Piedone's team found multiple containers of the cheese, with visible mold growth. "This is not cheese!" Piedone exclaimed in the video, highlighting the substandard quality. The ANPC president ordered the immediate removal of the affected cheese from store shelves. The incident underscores the importance of food safety regulations and highlights the ANPC's ongoing efforts to protect consumers. The ANPC will conduct further investigations to determine the source of the contaminated product and take appropriate action against those responsible. This incident serves as a reminder to consumers to carefully inspect food products before purchasing and to report any concerns to the ANPC.
