70,000 mozzarella balls have been seized by Italian police because the stuff develops a blue tint when the package is opened. Nobody yet knows why, and as a founding member of the vegan peanut gallery I can’t wait to find out. The product was made in Germany and—given the quantity of cheese involved—you’ve got to wonder if other dairy products and other countries will be affected.
And guess what? Italy’s government is refusing to disclose the brand name. It’s clear that putting the interests of food companies before consumer safety isn’t just an American thing. Link.
