Because of a broken scraper, Hans Henglein & Sohn GmbH warns against plastic pieces in a popular spaetzle product that is sold nationwide.
Abenberg - In addition to rice and noodles, spaetzle is a popular side dish, especially in southern Germany.
A popular spaetzle product that is offered at various supermarkets and retailers is currently being recalled.
The pasta could apparently contain foreign bodies, and consumption for consumers could have serious consequences.
Recall: blue plastic parts in pasta - popular spaetzle product recalled
As Hans Henglein & Sohn GmbH from Abenberg in Middle Franconia openly announced in a statement on Friday, “it cannot be ruled out that
there are
blue plastic parts
in the food
”.
These are pieces of a broken scraper that is used for production.
Depending on the size and shape of the plastic parts, there is a risk of being cut and stabbed during consumption.
Breathlessness or even a risk of suffocation could also be possible consequences.
It is explicitly about the product
