The European Commission will review 11 authorised smoke flavouring primary products later this month, taking into consideration the European Food Safety Authority‘s (EFSA) previous safety concerns.
Based on EFSA’s evaluations of all the smoke flavourings already in use within the EU, the draft regulation will be discussed by the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health (SCFCAH) on October 21 after preliminary discussions were had on July 1, a spokesperson at the European Commission told FoodNavigator.
