Sausage additive linked to cancer
An additive used in some sausages and burgers could cause cancer, food safety experts have warned.
The European Food Safety Authority has expressed concern about the use of the colouring E128, also known as Red 2G.
Its expert panel on food additives has recommended that the dye should no longer be considered safe for human consumption.
The Food Standards Agency is currently investigating whether products containing E128 are on sale in the UK.
