Popular spread

The nut nougat cream with coconut blossom sugar from Nusweet "is available in well-stocked organic and health food stores as well as online," the company writes.

The sweet spread is very popular.

Only a few months ago, the health food magazine Schrot & Korn reported that this cream landed in a rating in organic stores in the first place.

Foreign matter can not be excluded one hundred percent

Due to errors in the manufacturing processes, contaminants or foreign bodies such as metal, plastic or glass parts in food products can occur again and again.

According to experts, these are not one hundred percent excluded, even if the monitoring should always be complete.

In addition to foreign bodies, contamination with harmful germs is a common reason for food recall campaigns. (Ad)
