Danger  : Possible presence of Clostridium botulinum

Supplier communication:

Graying on the surface of part of our production, linked to a non-compliant supplier ingredient. This situation does not exclude a Clostridium botulinum risk.

Information :

Botulism is a rare disease that most commonly results from eating contaminated food containing botulinum toxin produced by Clostridium botulinum . This toxin develops in particular in canned or sausage products made at home or at home for which the sterilization process has not been mastered. Symptoms usually appear 12 to 72 hours after ingesting contaminated food, but they can develop earlier or later (2 hours up to 10 days). Botulinum poisoning is characterized by neurological signs: sensation of blurred vision, drooping eyelids, speech problems, difficulty swallowing, dry mouth, muscle weakness. Digestive signs (constipation, vomiting, diarrhea) often accompany neurological signs.

The products can be distributed by different points of sale in Luxembourg.

Research – Food poisoning or stomach flu? How to tell the difference

WRAL News

Because food poisoning and the stomach flu can present with similar symptoms, it can be difficult to tell them apart.

“While the symptoms of food poisoning and stomach bugs overlap, there is a difference in how quickly the symptoms arise,” Dr. Jackson says. “With food poisoning, rapid diarrhea and vomiting will begin within three to six hours of eating a contaminated food source. With a stomach flu, it’s a slower course, and the symptoms of vomiting and diarrhea may not show up for 12 to 24 hours. A person will start feeling unwell and queasy first.”
