IKEA has expanded to 24 the number of markets where it has halted sales of meatballs over fears that they could contain horsemeat, it said yesterday.
Meatballs have now been pulled from stores in Hong Kong, Thailand and the Dominican Republic in addition to the host of European countries announced on Monday, said spokeswoman Ylva Magnusson.
She said a German laboratory was currently testing meatballs for traces of horsemeat, with results expected tomorrow.
Stores in Sweden, Denmark, France and Romania withdrew meatballs from sale as a precaution. Ikea said there was no horsemeat in the meatballs served in its stores in the United States.
