Details of the Urgent Milk Recall in Germany
In particular, Edeka and Marktkauf stores carry not only well-known brand products but also items under their own label 'GUT&GÜNSTIG.' Recently, a product from this brand has been recalled.
'Hohenloher Molkerei' is announcing the recall of milk:
- Affected products can be identified by specific labeling: GUT&GÜNSTIG UHT Whole Milk 3.5 % fat (1 liter).
- The product's Best Before Date (BBD) is until March 27, 2024.
- Health Mark: DE BW 010 EG.
The manufacturer warns that in some cases, microbiological contamination has been detected during routine checks. As a result, the milk may change its consistency, becoming thicker, and may develop a sour taste.
Consuming the recalled milk may also pose health risks. 'Hohenloher Molkerei' does not provide details on specific violations but declares the federal states where the milk subject to the recall was sold.
Products with the mentioned labeling were exclusively offered at a regional level in selected Edeka and Marktkauf stores in Baden-Württemberg, as well as in northern Bavaria and neighboring regions of Saxony and Thuringia. Other federal states are not affected by the recall.
Stores have already removed the recalled product from shelves. Consumers who have purchased this milk can exchange it or receive a refund by returning the product to the point of sale, without the need for a purchase receipt. The purchase price will be fully reimbursed.
