There has been an urgent product recall of certain chocolate products following an outbreak of Salmonella typhimurium.
The recall includes all Kinder products manufactured at their Arlon site in Belgium between June 2021 and the present date.
The Food Standards Agency are calling on retailers to make sure they have removed all Kinder products linked to the outbreak from their shelves. An earlier recall only covered some of the affected products, so it is important for retailers to check they have removed the additional products on the updated recall notices.
Elizabeth Blaney, Service Manager for Public Protection, commented:
It’s important that any potential harmful products are removed from shelves and not sold to the public by mistake. We will be working with the Food Standards Agency to make sure retailers are made aware.
If you do have any Kinder products at home please do not eat it, instead contact the Ferrero consumer careline by email at consumers.uk@ferrero.com to obtain a full refund.
Don’t take the risk.
