The Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) has halted the production of Tasty Tom Enriched Tomato Mix, citing alarming lapses in quality control at Nutrifoods Ghana Limited's factory.
The decision comes on the back of growing concerns about product safety and consumer complaints.
An FDA investigation uncovered faulty sealing systems that had allowed mold growth, contamination, and pouch bloating in specific sizes-especially the 380g and 1.05kg variants-posing clear health risks.
These findings were reinforced by reports from consumers and physical assessments of both the canned and pouch products.
