The agency said the products, originating from Malaysia, contained more than 5% pork.

“Meat and meat products that contain more than 5% of meat can only be imported from accredited sources,” it said in a statement.

“As a precautionary measure, SFA has directed the importers, Biscotti Trading Pte Ltd and Boughtnex Pte Ltd, to recall the implicated products. The recall is ongoing.”

SFA said all food imports into Singapore must adhere to the requirements set by the agency.

“Food can only be imported by licensed importers, and every consignment must be declared and accompanied by a valid import permit,” it said.

“Illegally imported food products from unknown and unapproved sources can pose a food safety risk to consumers.”

Yesterday, the SFA had advised consumers against buying or consuming another Malaysian product, “Kingu Ginseng Candy”, after detecting adulteration with tadalafil, a potent prescription medicine for erectile dysfunction treatment.

It said the product had been marketed on various local e-commerce platforms as a candy with claims that it can enhance sexual performance among males.
