EU – Salmonellosis outbreak linked to imported sesame-based products
Five European countries have reported salmonellosis infections linked to the consumption of sesame-based products such as tahini and halva imported from Syria.
Up to 121 people have been affected since January 2019 in Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, and Sweden. Several types of Salmonella are linked to the outbreak – S. Mbandaka, S. Havana, S. Orion, S. Amsterdam, S. Senftenberg, and S. Kintambo.
The products are sealed and ready to be consumed, which suggests that contamination occurred before they reached the European market.
Control measures on the involved batches have been implemented since August 2020. Nevertheless, cases were still being reported as recently as September 2021. This could be because the products have a long shelf life and are being stored in people’s homes.
EFSA and ECDC scientists concluded that there is still a risk of new Salmonella infections related to these products in the EU/EEA.

UK – Retailer’s Campylobacter test results in maximum FSA category
Marks and Spencer has recorded the highest Campylobacter in chicken results in the most recent quarterly figures reported in the United Kingdom.
The newest data covers April to June for nine retailers on Campylobacter in fresh, shop-bought UK-produced chickens.
For Marks and Spencer, 5 percent were in the maximum category in April, 9 percent in May, and 9 percent in June based on a sample of 376 chickens taken from store shelves across the United Kingdom. This compares to 2 percent above 1,000 CFU/g in January, 3 percent in February and 4 percent in March based on tests of 292 chickens.
The Food Standards Agency (FSA) maximum level is 7 percent of birds with more than 1,000 colony forming units per gram (CFU/g) of Campylobacter.
Waitrose has not updated its results from the first quarter of this year or provided them to Food Safety News when asked to do so. Levels at the supermarket for the previous quarter were zero percent in the above 1,000 CFU/g category.
Results of chickens in the highest contamination bracket went up for all other retailers except Tesco.
