Prevention recall: Frauenaler Landjäger because of EHEC concerns

A worrying callback concerns the popular article "Frauenaler Landjäger 200 g", as the company Hofer announced in cooperation with the supplier Sorst- und Schinkenperkeitätälle GmbH. The reason for this recall are concerns about possible contamination with EHEC, a dangerous bacterium that can result in serious health consequences.

Affected by this recall are specific batches of the product, in particular those with the best -before date 19.11.2024 and the Charge Sor4764247. These were offered in several Hofer branches in Tyrol, Vorarlberg, Salzburg, Carinthia, Styria and in Southern Burgenland. The sale of the product was immediately discontinued to minimize possible risks for consumers.

health risk from EHEC

The health protection of consumers is in the foreground here. EHEC can lead to serious diseases in humans, including serious diarrhea and kidney damage. Groups such as children, the elderly and people with a weakened immune system are particularly at risk. For this reason, it is of the utmost importance not to consume the product concerned.

return and reimbursement

For customers who have already acquired "Frauenaler Landjäger", there is a simple solution. The product can be returned in any Hofer branch, whereby the purchase price is fully reimbursed without submitting the receipt. This regulation shows Hofer's commitment to the safety and health of its customers.

The responsible persons of the company underline that this recall is a pure precaution. Neither a blame for the producer, manufacturer nor to the distributor is not assigned. For further information or uncertainties, the Hofer customer hotline is available to clarify consumer questions and offer additional support.
