I understand. Maybe I add a note that one can use the translation tool on the browser?

And thank you so much for the English news in the reply from a member above.

Edit: Unluckily the page of the English news doesn't show any photos of the loewe gift. For quicker reference, one may check the thumbnail photo on the Chinese link too.

Taiwan finds excess chemicals on Loewe chopsticks from China, Chilean cherries
FDA blocks import of 202 sets of chopsticks, 120 metric tons of cherries

TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) stopped the import of chopsticks made in China for fashion brand Loewe and of cherries from Chile due to the presence of potentially harmful chemicals, reports said Tuesday (Feb. 14).

The wooden chopsticks, manufactured for the Year of the Rabbit, contained 4-Aminoazobenzene coloring, a chemical product banned in Taiwan, per CNA. The FDA ordered the 202 sets of chopsticks, weighing a total of 25.14 kilograms, to be sent back or destroyed.

Loewe is a Spanish brand part of the French luxury fashion and drinks group LVMH Moet Hennessy – Louis Vuitton.
