Last minute product recall one day before Christmas Eve!
The company Hans Riegelein & Sohn is recalling a Santa Claus made of milk chocolate.
The company in Cadolzburg, Middle Franconia, announced that it might not be ruled out that individual packages with the batch number L-102293N and the best-before date of July 31, 2023 were contaminated with salmonella.
Eating Santa Claus “Santa Claus in town” can lead to health problems.
Sold at Netto Marken-Discount
The recall is therefore being carried out for reasons of preventive consumer protection. The aforementioned Santa made of 200 grams of chocolate is in branches of Netto Marken-Discount (yellow-red logo) in parts of Baden-Württemberg, Bavaria, Bremen, Hesse, Lower Saxony, North Rhine-Westphalia, Rhineland-Palatinate, Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia has been sold.
Customers would get the money back even without presenting the receipt in their shops.
Salmonella disease manifests itself within a few days following infection with diarrhoea, abdominal pain and occasionally vomiting and a slight fever.
Anyone who has eaten St. Nicholas and develops severe or persistent symptoms should seek medical help and point out a possible salmonella infection, it said. (rgz, dpa)
