urgency of the recall

The recall has a high priority because contamination with salmonella can lead to serious health risks. Salmonella is known to trigger food poisoning that are associated with symptoms such as diarrhea, fever and abdominal cramps. Russian poisoning through contaminated foods are a common problem, as is the Foodwatch-Report

food recalls in Germany often show defects in the organization. On average, at least two foods are called back per week, but consumers often do not experience them in time from these recalls.
