EFSA – Wants New Guidelines/Safety Measures on Sprouted Seeds

FnBnews has reported on the European Food Agency wanting new controls on sprouting seeds, I have just recently posted on the new Australian and NZ guidelines for sprouting seeds. Producers of sprouted seeds should tighten safety measures along the production chain as ready-to-eat food can cause large outbreaks of illness, the EU food safety agency said after thousands of people were hit by E.coli infection this year.
