Due to food contamination, a beverage company from Germany has to recall a mineral water.
Swollen - We recently reported about a potentially dangerous mineral water due to possible glass residues, now another company is starting the recall of a mineral water.
This time, however, there is a different threat: nausea from solvent residues.
Brandengetränke Schwollen GmbH from Rhineland-Palatinate informs that it cannot be ruled out that isolated bottles from a certain production contain residues of a chemical substance.
Recall of mineral water in five federal states - health consequences threaten
Specifically, it is the mineral water "Berg Quelle Medium" in the reusable glass bottle with a capacity of 0.75 liters.
Only one best-before date is affected by the food recall - March 9, 2023 (best before March 9, 2023).
Other best-before dates or other products from Brandengetränke Schwollen GmbH are not affected by the problem, assures the company from the Hochwald-Hunsrück national park community.
The water with the hazardous residues was mainly distributed in five federal states: Rhineland-Palatinate, Saarland, North Rhine-Westphalia, Hesse and Baden-Württemberg.
