Cadmium has been found in avocados from Peru that were exported through Poland and received in Odesa, Ukraine. The Main Department of the State Production and Consumer Service in the Ivano-Frankivsk region warns sellers to remove these avocados from circulation due to the extreme toxicity of cadmium. This is not the first instance of dangerous food being discovered in Ukraine, as previously rice from Italy and French cheese with Listeria monocytogenes have also been found.
