A food safety team of the Punjab Food Authority (PFA) seized 500 litres of substandard edible oil in an operation at Multan Road here on Monday.
The team led by director of operations PFA Shahzad Khan Magsi stopped a vehicle at Multan Road and found it was loaded with drums containing edible oil extracted from poultry waste that was harmful to human health.
The PFA team prevented the supply of substandard oil to food production units, hotels, and snack preparation units. Samples of the edible oil have been sent to the laboratory for analysis. —APP
