Metal parts found Bergader recalls pepper cheese

Bergader recalls Biarom Grüner Pfeffer Schnittkäse because of metal splinters
The cheese factory Bergader has started a recall for "Biarom Grüner Pfeffer Bergkäse". In a package were found metal splinters. Consumption is strongly discouraged. Customers can return affected products for a refund of the purchase price.

Metal fragments found in cheese
After the discovery of metal splinters in cheese, the Bavarian private dairy Bergader has started a recall campaign for "Biarom Grüner Pfeffer Schnittkäse" (45 percent fat). As the company in Waging am See reported, metal fragments have been found in a single pack. Only articles with the veterinary control numbers "DE-BB 72027 EG" and "DE TH-632 EG" are concerned. Among other things, the cheese was packaged for the cheese marketer "Sales & Service Aktuell GmbH", which delivers to North Rhine-Westphalia, Bavaria, Hesse and Rhineland-Palatinate. According to the information, Edeka Minden-Hannover, REWE Dortmund and REWE Cologne are other customers.

Customers can return purchased goods
The company specifically warned consumers against consuming the product. Foreign objects in foods can lead to cuts or punctures and can be dangerous if swallowed. Buyers can return the affected product in the respective market against reimbursement of the purchase price. The dairy, which expressly regrets the incident, has responded promptly and has already had the inventory of the affected batch removed from sale in the respective markets.

Huge recall in 55 countries
Due to errors in the manufacturing processes, contaminants or foreign bodies in food products can occur again and again. As the Verbraucherzentrale NRW announced in the past, foreign objects can not be completely excluded, even if the monitoring should always be complete. A much larger recall is currently due to plastic particles in Mars chocolate bars. The confectionery manufacturer recently announced it would recall millions of chocolate products in 55 countries. In addition to foreign bodies, contamination with harmful germs is a common reason for food recall campaigns. (Ad)
