A simple box of pâté sends him to the hospital. A 65-year-old man is currently hospitalized in intensive care at the Grenoble University Hospital after eating a pork terrine. The Pasteur Institute’s tests detected the presence of botulinum toxin. “We are very worried about my father,” his son explained to the Dauphiné Libéré . ”We hope that he will recover quickly and that he will not have any after-effects.”
The 65-year-old man had consumed a pork terrine produced on the farm by EARL Les Peupliers in Mottier in Isère. As soon as the results were known, the Isère prefecture ordered the recall of the cans of pork terrine. A few dozen cans are said to be affected. “The production conditions do not guarantee the sterilization of the jars,” the prefecture said.
