chilli pdrBright red chilli powder available in the market is coated with a dye called Sudan Red, a carcinogenic chemical used in the textile industry. When this chemical dye was detected, a huge consignment of red chillies was sent back to India from the UK in 2003. The Spices Board was forced to cancel the license of the five Indian exporters involved and to order mandatory pre-ship inspection of all future chilli consignments leaving the country.
