Where's your fenugreek from?
In February 2009, the International Frutarom Corporation factory in North Bergen, New Jersey was found to be the source of a mysterious maple syrup aroma that had been reported as occasionally drifting over New York City since 2005. The odor was found to be from sotolon, an ester in fenugreek seeds. No health risks have been found.[22]
Fenugreek seeds imported from Egypt in 2009 and 2010 have been linked to outbreaks of Escherichia coli O104:H4 in Germany and France, causing 50 deaths in 2011.[23][24]
