Salmonella found in everyday product - recall applies to several supermarkets

A manufacturer is recalling its product because of a salmonella infestation.

Consumers need to be careful - the health risk is high.

Hamburg - Orient Gate GmbH informs its customers that salmonella has been found in a batch of their cumin product.

Due to the high health risks, the recall * of the product must be observed immediately.

More precisely, it concerns the goods "cumin seeds" of the Abido brand, as

reports.

Since the goods are offered in several different supermarkets, customers and consumers must pay attention to the exact best-before date and the corresponding lot number in order to identify the items contaminated with salmonella.

Consumption is strongly discouraged.

Recall: This is what it means for customers

Customers who have already bought the item infected with salmonella can return the goods to the relevant supermarket.

As a rule, the costs are reimbursed even if there is no more receipt.

Meanwhile, a salmonella infection is not to be trifled with: it can have serious health consequences, ranging from nausea and diarrhea to vomiting and fever.

Elderly people, children and people with a weakened immune system are particularly at risk.

Because of the health risk for consumers, we also point out comparable recalls from the past few days.

Salmonella was also found in a popular spice * that was sold at Lidl.

Salmonella * was also found in other spice products that were available in various shops.

And particular caution is required with a cheese * that was offered by tegut: It contained shiga toxin-producing E. coli bacteria (STEC), which pose a high health risk.
