Warning: French brand Uberti almonds recalled for dangerous cyanide level
Camcontrol issues alert on French brand’s almonds after dangerous levels of hydrogen cyanide detected
30 Aril 2018
The Ministry of Commerce issued a warning on Friday about almonds from the French brand Uberti, which have been found to contain dangerous levels of prussic acid, or hydrogen cyanide.
The ministry’s Cambodia Import-Export Inspection and Fraud Repression Directorate-General (Camcontrol) is confiscating the product and warning distributors about Uberti’s bitter apricot almonds after inspectors in France found that they contains more than 500 milligrams of hydrogen cyanide per kilogram, far above the legal limit of 20 milligrams per kilogram.
According to the announcement, consumption of the acid above the legal limit might cause Vitamin B12 deficiency, low blood pressure, nerve inflammation and neurological tissue damage.
Camcontrol ordered a block on the import of the products, and sent notifications to local importers and wholesalers.

So, avoid loose almonds too for the next couple of months then."officials would search for the products nationwide. “When we find it, we will confiscate and destroy it,” he said.
