Further information:

Extension of the recall from August 2nd, 2022 to include another best-before date (MHD).

Salmonella disease manifests itself within a few days after infection with diarrhoea, abdominal pain and occasionally vomiting and a slight fever. The symptoms usually subside on their own after a few days. Babies, small children, senior citizens and people with a weakened immune system in particular can develop more severe illnesses. Anyone who has eaten this food and develops severe or persistent symptoms should seek medical attention and report possible salmonella infection.

It makes no sense to seek preventive medical treatment without symptoms.
