Edibles - Recalled potatoes from Penny and Rewe supermarkets
The reason for the warning about these potatoes is because they've been found to contain more pesticide than is legally allowed. Officials say you should not eat them, as there might be a health risk involved.
The potatoes were sold in areas like Berlin, Brandenburg, Hessen (only at Penny Philippsthal), Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Niedersachsen (only at Penny Amt Neuhaus), Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, and Thuringia. If you bought some, you can bring them back to the store where you bought them and get your money back. Even if you don't have your receipt, you can still return the potatoes.
