A well-known chips manufacturer has issued a new recall.

Consuming it can cause nausea, drowsiness and headaches.

Kassel – In Germany, consumers have to expect repeated recalls.

The organic supermarket chain Alnatura has now recalled two different varieties.

Alnatura corn chips and Alnatura corn chips paprika with the best before dates August 9, 2022 to August 17, 2022 are affected. This was announced by a spokeswoman for the company based in Darmstadt.

The goods have already been withdrawn from sale.

Reason for the recall:

So-called tropane alkaloids were detected in a sample of the corn chip peppers.

These are natural ingredients from various plants such as henbane, thorn apple and deadly nightshade.

Tropane alkaloids can cause temporary health problems, such as nausea, drowsiness, and headaches.

Chips recalled: Customers receive replacements

As a precaution, anyone who bought the types of chips affected by the recall should no longer eat them.

Customers can return the products with the specified best-before dates to the respective supermarket branches.

There, consumers will receive a replacement for the returned chips.

According to the company, products with different best-before dates are not affected.

No tropane alkaloids have been discovered in other Alnatura products either.

A vegetable recall was published just a few days ago.

Experts had found broken glass in products.

The reasons for a recall are often very different.

Meanwhile, Swiss chocolate maker Barry Callebaut has halted production at its factory in Belgium.

Experts had discovered salmonella in a batch, as the company announced.

Experts named the additive lecithin as the cause of the contamination.

This is used as an antioxidant, emulsifier or stabilizer in chocolate production.

These types of crisps from Alnatura are being recalled.

According to their own statements, chocolate products from the well-known confectionery manufacturers Nestlé and Unilever are not affected by the possible salmonella contamination.

"According to the latest information we have received from our supplier, Barry Callebaut, the batches in question have not been delivered to Nestlé," Nestlé said.
