Food alert on cancer-causing dye

Yikes!
Who named a food dye, Sudan anyway?

Food alert on cancer-causing dye:


Food products have been contaminated with an illegal dye linked to an increased risk of cancer.


The dye, Sudan I, is linked to an increased risk of cancer - but is not thought to be a risk to health at the concentrations used in these products.

It was in a batch of chilli powder used by Premier Foods to manufacture a Worcester sauce.

This was then used as an ingredient in at least 350 different products.
