Hong Kong is banning the sale of popular Indian spice brands MDH Pvt. and Everest Food Products Pvt. following the alleged detection of the carcinogenic pesticide ethylene oxide in several spice mixes. The Centre for Food Safety (CFS) announced on April 5 that it detected ethylene oxide, a pesticide classified as a carcinogen, in three MDH products - Madras Curry Powder, Mixed Masala Powder, and Sambhar Masala - as well as in Everest's Fish Curry Masala.
