The authorities in Oman said it has followed what has been circulated on social media about the presence of plastic in Dahabi’s flour (Gold 2).

This was revealed by the Ministry of Regional Municipalities and Water Resources, represented by the Food Safety and Quality Centre.

Officials said that they conducted laboratory analyzes on flour, and the results showed that the product was fit for human consumption and it was free of plastic.

They added as laboratory tests have proven that flour contains gluten, a protein of flour, which is a natural substance in flour that helps the flour to stick together.
