Rewe is currently affected by a recall. A vegan substitute product could contain dangerous metal parts. If consumed, there is a risk of injury.
Munich – A variety of vegan products can be found not only in organic shops. More and more supermarkets such as Rewe and Edeka as well as discounters such as Aldi and Lidl offer a wide range of vegetarian and vegan products. But it happens again and again that products are recalled that were already on the supermarket shelves. For example, a meat product at Edeka was recently recalled due to listeria. A popular cheese at Kaufland because of significant health risks.
If you prefer vegetarian or vegan products, you should check your purchases carefully now. As the manufacturer SoFine Foods BV informs via the portal produktwarnung.eu, the vegan spinach schnitzels may contain metal particles. In addition to Rewe, two other supermarkets are also affected by the recall.

It is not uncommon for a product to be recalled from supermarkets or discounters. According to the Federal Office of Consumer Protection and Food Safety (BVL), the most common causes of a recall are microbiological contamination by germs, viruses or bacteria. Last year, there were around 311 recalls on the portal lebensmittelwarnung.de of the federal states and the BVL. In order to avoid costly recall campaigns, many rules must be observed in the production and further processing of food. (Vivian Werg)
