to look at again. Um And um if if we get the same kind of confirmation that we received and we got into cycling mates, then of course we have to take the same action because the law is very precise. If if if you have solid evidence

00:00:34.300 - 00:00:54.620

that um a given additive or ingredient uh creates carcinoma cancer in humans or animals, then you have to take it off the market now, cycling mates, we have no evidence that they've ever produced cancer in humans, but they did have in animals. So that's what we

had to take the action in that connection. Are you giving special attention to monosodium glutamate as a result of this fund? Well, I would say yes. We move that up to the top of the list. Anytime we get an indication from any private source about a
