partially hydrogenated oils (PHOs) in foods exported to the US
The US government has recalled Zimi Kunefe frozen ready-to-eat food products because they contain partially hydrogenated oils (PHOs), which are linked to heart disease. This recall affects products sold in the US with specific lot numbers and expiration dates.
Partially hydrogenated oils (PHOs) are a type of trans fat that can increase the risk of heart disease when consumed in large amounts. These oils are found in some imported frozen foods and are not safe for regular consumption due to their health effects.
Consumers who purchased Zimi Kunefe frozen ready-to-eat products with lot numbers 048025, 122025, or 248025 are affected. People with heart disease or those at risk for heart conditions may be most concerned.
Check the product label for lot numbers: 048025 (expires 02/17/2026), 122025 (expires 11/02/2026), or 248025 (expires 05/09/2027). The product is sold in 380g paper cartons with 9 units per case.
Look for lot numbers 048025, 122025, or 248025 on the packaging.
