Contaminants in Advent calendar chocolate

By now, many of you will have opened a few doors of an Advent calendar. Likewise, every year certain Christmas treats are specifically tested for undesirable contaminants, e.g. mineral oil residues in Advent calendar chocolate.

Mineral oil residues contain the aromatic mineral oil hydrocarbons (MOAH), which are classified as potentially carcinogenic and are critical for the health of consumers. On the positive side, less products have been contaminated in recent years.
