Musa Özsoy, the owner of the Gıda Dedektifi account, who reports on unhealthy conditions in the products we eat and drink and exposes issues in the packaged foods that almost all of us consume, has this time brought a post about pistachios to his page.
Pointing to a post on the Instagram account of a patisserie operating in Antalya, Özsoy revealed how pistachios that were exported from Turkey but returned due to high levels of aflatoxin are being marketed domestically.
Musa Özsoy revealed how the toxic pistachios are being sold at a price of 150 liras per kilo with the following words:
A business called Şarlot Pastanesi, operating in Antalya, shared the bargaining process for pistachios that were returned from abroad and not destroyed on its Instagram account.
In the shared photos, it can be seen that the price of the products dropped to 150 TL per kilo and they were being sold to businesses.
They are selling them in plain sight.
