Fenugreek leaves are being recalled in several federal states. The reason for this is the detection of chlorpyrifos, which is considered harmful to health.

Global Foods Trading GmbH from Biebesheim in Hesse has recalled its "MDH Peacook Kasoori Methi" fenugreek leaves due to the detection of a substance that is harmful to health. According to the online portal "Lebensmittelwarnung.de", the detected pesticide chlorpyrifos has not been approved as a plant protection product in the EU since 2020 due to health concerns. Affected are 100-gram packs with the batch numbers LOT No. 314, 315, 316 and a best-before date of 30.11.2026.

The product is sold in Hesse, Baden-Württemberg, Bavaria, Berlin, Bremen, Hamburg, Lower Saxony, North Rhine-Westphalia, Rhineland-Palatinate, Saarland, Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, Schleswig-Holstein and Thuringia.
