File photo: RTHK The Centre for Food Safety (CFS) has urged people not to consume Jolly Rancher candies that may contain mineral oils deemed unfit for human consumption. A recall for the four affected Jolly Rancher products, called 'Hard Candy', ''Misfits' gummies', 'Hard Candy Fruity 2 in 1' and 'Berry Gummies', have been ordered. "The CFS noted a notice issued by the British Authority indicating that the above-mentioned products might contain mineral oils. The products are not compliant with their local law and all batches of products concerned are being recalled," a CFS spokesman said in a statement. The centre says a local supplier had imported one of the affected products – Hard Candy – but has now halted sales and issued a recall. The CFS noted that local laws prohibit the use of mineral oils in food. It said investigations into the matter are continuing and appropriate follow-up action would be taken.
