Oysters and Smoked Salmon Recalled Across France Over Health Risks
French authorities warn of mislabeled oysters and smoked salmon potentially contaminated with listeria, urging consumers to take precautions.
- Rappel Conso has issued a nationwide recall for oysters sold at Lidl and smoked salmon from multiple retailers due to health concerns.
- Normandy oysters under the Cultimer Producteurs Associés brand were mislabeled with an incorrect expiration date, extending far beyond safe consumption limits.
- The affected oysters include size 3 (2 kg) lots sold between December 23-26 and size 4 (1.5 kg) lots sold after December 26 in specific regions of France.
- Two smoked salmon brands, Nautilus Collection and Osé Bio, are being recalled over potential contamination with Listeria monocytogenes, a harmful bacteria.
- Consumers are advised to return the products for a refund or destroy them, and to seek medical advice if experiencing symptoms such as fever, headaches, or muscle pain.
