Listeria is a bacterium found in the environment. Listeria can pose a health hazard to pregnant women or people with weakened immune systems. The product is marked on the back with “must be cooked before consumption”. The Norwegian Food Safety Authority considers that this warning is not clear enough, because the labelling regulations state that mandatory information and warnings in Norway must be labelled in Norwegian. Insufficient heating of the mushrooms can lead to a health hazard for the consumer.
The product was delivered on 19 May to Yellow Strømmen AS, Mango mat at Tiller/Trondheim, Jincheng at Hønefoss, Norvina in Stavanger, Asiabutikken Kristiansand and Afood Porsgrunn AS. The stores have been told to stop selling the product.
When stored in the refrigerator, the product can have a shelf life of 1-2 weeks. If the consumer has the product at home, they can throw it away or return it to the store.Product NameSuper fruta – Enoki mushroomEnterprise recalling the itemAsian Food Import ASBatch Number
