The recall concerns a vegan meat substitute product.
It may be contaminated with salmonella.
Consumption could have health consequences for consumers.
Berlin – More and more people are eating at least some vegan or vegetarian diets.
Anyone who avoids consuming meat should now be careful when shopping.
A current recall concerns a vegan minced product, which is a cooperation between KoRo and Rügenwalder Mühle.
It was only in February that KoRo recalled a candy nationwide.

Salmonella are “bacteria whose metabolites can trigger acute intestinal inflammation, salmonellosis, in humans.”
The Federal Office for Consumer Protection and Food Safety (BLV) provides information about this.
Salmonellosis is a classic food infection, according to the Robert Koch Institute (RKI).

Malaise, vomiting and a slight fever are also common.
