FDA Rules Out Blanket Recall of Processed Foods
Posted on 2026-07-03 20:09:13
The Food and Drug Administration says it will not order a blanket recall of
processed foods made with contaminated soybean oil, saying the health risk is
low.

Officials say more than 17 metric tons of the tainted oil have already been
removed from the market in a nationwide recall .... after excessive levels
of the cancer-causing substance benzo[a]pyrene were detected in soybean salad
oil supplied by Taichung-based Central Union Oil.

The agency says the contamination affects 18 products across 30 batches, but
it will not release the names of hundreds of downstream businesses because
the contaminant is expected to be significantly diluted during food
processing.

Authorities have ordered all affected soybean oil products off the market and
warn businesses that continue selling them could face fines of up to three
million NT.
