The Punjab Food Authority raided and confiscated sub-standard raw material, ingredients from the factory
SUNDAR: The Punjab Food Authority on Saturday raided a food processing factory using rotten eggs in Sundar.
The authorities confiscated seven hundred thousand rotten eggs and eight thousand kilogrammes of sub standard powder prepared from rotten eggs.
"The confiscated raw material was in such huge quantities that we had to request the Solid Waste Management to assist us in disposing it of," said DG PFA Noor Ul Amin Mengal.
The powder was being supplied to popular bakeries, the authorities told Geo News.
"The factory was illegally using the Punjab Food Authority logo," a PFA spokesperson said, adding that legal action will be taken against the factory.
Authorities said they will trace the bakeries that were buying from the factory and take action against them.
