Attention cheese buyer! Metal bodies discovered cheese in the home market!

The Denns Biomarkt launched a callback from the "Thise Mejeri North Sea cheese" (approx. 170g). The reason for this step are possible refrigeration bodies that have been found in individual packaging. The company, which acts both under the name Denns Biomarkt as well as Dennreee Naturkost GmbH, brings the entire batch of cheese out of sale to avoid potential health risks. Products with the best before May 26, 2025 to June 1, 2025, which were sold in Denns Biomarkt branches and selected natural food stores are affected. Customers can return the product without receipt and receive the purchase price.

The company has emphasized that other best -before preservation data are not affected and their quality is flawless. This procedure corresponds to the precautionary principle to ensure that there are no health risks for consumers. However, it is not claimed that the potential health risk was caused by the producer, manufacturer, importer or distributor, as today.at reports.

Food safety and recall

recalls from the food industry are not uncommon, especially when it comes to potentially health -hazardous products. An examination of [Foodwatch] (https://www.foodwatch.org/de/informierieren/schauStoffe- Leztersicherheit/rueckrufe/report-zu- Lebensmittelruecken) shows that at least two foods are recalled on average every week. These recalls are usually due to contaminants caused by pathogens such as salmonella and listeria or from foreign bodies such as glass and plastic parts.

However, the organization criticizes the often poor communication when recalled. An evaluation of recall actions on the portal food warning.de showed that almost half of the warnings are released. Companies often do not use all available communication channels to inform consumers in good time. The responsibility for the assessment of health risks and the triggering of warnings is mainly among the companies themselves, which leads to possible conflicts of interest.

Because of these circumstances, it is important that consumers remain attentive and are regularly informed about recall actions. The recall of the "Thise Mejeri North Sea cheese" by the Denns Biomarkt is a further indication of the importance of food safety and the vigilance requirement of consumers.
