While there has been a significant increase in foodborne poisoning cases across Turkey in recent weeks, an allegation from Samsun has raised great concern. It has been claimed that a business in the city has been erasing the past expiration dates on canned sodas with acetone and reselling them.

The series of food poisoning incidents in Turkey has caused considerable unease in society, and the allegation from Samsun has heightened these concerns.

ACETONE DOES MORE THAN JUST REMOVE NAIL POLISH!

It has been claimed that a business in the city has been erasing the dates on canned sodas with acetone and reselling them. This scandalous allegation raises questions about how weakly food safety is monitored.

According to the allegations, the business has been cleaning the expiration dates on the bottom of the cans with acetone instead of throwing away expired beverages and putting them back on the shelves. Eyewitness accounts and images shared on social media have caused unease among citizens.

CALL TO SAMSUN PROVINCIAL DIRECTORATE OF AGRICULTURE AND FORESTRY

This scandalous allegation poses a significant risk to public health in Turkey, where many poisoning cases have occurred recently due to food prepared in unsanitary conditions and expired products.

While it is expected that the Samsun Provincial Directorate of Agriculture and Forestry will initiate an investigation into the matter, experts warn that products with erased or invisible expiration dates should never be consumed.

Authorities reminded that such practices by businesses are subject to severe penalties and pose a serious threat to public health.
