Overview

  • German authorities and BLG Kardesler have issued a recall of Suntat ground cinnamon (90g jars, batch L353103, best-before 30.08.2026) after detecting elevated lead levels.
  • The recall affects products sold at Rewe, Edeka, and Aldi in six states: Baden-Württemberg, Bayern, Hessen, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Rheinland-Pfalz, and Saarland.
  • Lead is a toxic heavy metal that can accumulate in the body, posing risks to the brain, nervous system, and blood formation, particularly for children and pregnant individuals.
  • Consumers are advised not to consume the product and can return it to the point of purchase for a full refund, even without a receipt.
  • The recall is limited to the specified batch and does not impact other Suntat products, with authorities continuing to monitor compliance and safety alerts.
