Nepal bans imported spices due to ethylene oxide contamination, following similar actions by Singapore, Hong Kong, and the Maldives. Popular Indian spice brands MDH and Everest face global scrutiny over cancer-causing pesticide concerns. The increased scrutiny could threaten half of India's $2.17 billion spice exports. India now requires all spice shipments to Singapore and Hong Kong to undergo testing for ethylene oxide residues. Nepal's food watchdog agency has directed testing for ethylene oxide, and shopkeepers are informing customers about the ban. #SpiceContamination #FoodSafety #TradeImpact...
