A major spice manufacturer on Sunday said it was taking allegations of product contamination seriously but that the presence of an illegal banned chemical was "highly unlikely".
"The alleged Sudan Red contamination of one of our products which was reported in the Sunday Times is being taken very seriously as we believe this is highly unlikely," said Unilever spokesperson Christine Broadhurst.
"We are very surprised at the results of this test. Unilever has not had a single incident of Sudan contamination from March 2005 to date."
