400-gram poultry sausage is recalled
Only the "Gutfried" poultry sausage in the 400 gram packaging with expiry date 19 November 2010, which was added to the chain, was affected „Kaufland“ delivered and distributed through these. „In order to exclude any risk, consumers are asked not to consume the goods already purchased, but to return them at the points of sale for reimbursement of the purchase price“, stressed the spokeswoman for the food manufacturer. Even without a receipt you will receive the full price refunded. Obviously, a cutting knife was broken during production, the remains of which were then processed in the sausage. Other products or samples were not affected and the trade had already removed the 400-gram poultry meat sausage from the shelves, according to Heinrich Nölke GmbH & Co. KG.
Incident in the food industry is not an isolated case
Again and again misfortunes occur in the production, which lead to a load of the end products with metal splinters or the like. For example, Unilever did not have to recall hundreds of thousands of "bifis" until April of that year because they contained millimeter-sized metal parts. Unlike in the present case, it was not clear at that time where the metal residues came from. In addition, it can only be speculated how often such impurities are not noticed and the consumer consumes the products unknowingly. (fp, 27.10.2010)
