Danger alert: If you have recently shopped at a Cora, Intermarché or Leclerc store, Objection draws your attention to a public health problem.

Danger alert: Cora, Intermarché, Leclerc: attention ! Urgent product recall!
A subject not to be taken lightly
Very regularly, our editorial staff invites you to discover articles which relate to product recalls in France. It is a question of taking an interest in foods that do not correspond to the quality standards that can be expected in this field. Sometimes it is a question of a problem of labeling, expiry date or even the presence of pathogenic agents as in the case which concerns us today. Regularly, certain references contain, for example, significant traces of Listeria or Salmonella. A situation that brands like Leclerc, Cora and Intermarché are experiencing today.
Indeed, this Friday, February 11, 2022, we learned that a recall of a product recently sold in the dairy departments of Cora, Intermarché and Leclerc is proving problematic in relation to the probable presence of salmonella. As a reminder, this is a bacterium that can cause diseases such as typhoid fever, paratyphoid fever or salmonellosis in humans. It is also one of the main causes of collective food infection. Among the most common symptoms in patients will be headaches, gastrointestinal pain in the best case. For the most fragile people, such as pregnant women, immunodéficientschildren or older subjects, it can even cause serious complications to the point of truly putting their health at risk.
A permanent control
However, to avoid this kind of situation, France, like a large number of countries around the world, is implementing strict controls in this area. For their part, manufacturers and players in the food retail sector are also very vigilant and react quickly when such a problem is observed. This is what is happening today with a reference from Cora, Leclerc and Intermarché stores. So let’s take the time to find out together which cheese is targeted by this new product recall?

Danger alert: A well-established procedure
If following verificationyou notice that you have this reference in your fridge, here is how to react. First of all, remember that these cheeses should not be consumed under any circumstances because of the significant risk of food poisoning. Do not hesitate to throw them away or bring them back to the Cora, Leclerc or Intermarché stores closest to you. Indeed, the legislation requires the seller to refund your purchase on simple presentation of the offending product. We should also add that it is not necessary to produce proof of payment such as a receipt. In this kind of situation, it is actually not mandatory. From then on, the operation becomes very simple. A problem that unfortunately happens very regularly, as our teams very often report. Moreover, this cheese is not the only one affected by a product recall this week.
