Finland = Salmonella in frozen raspberries

Epressi

Lidl has announced a recall of frozen raspberries due to salmonella found in the product batch. The recall concerns Freshona brand frozen raspberries sold in 500 gram bags   , with a best before date of  September 5, 2025  and batch ID  050923 VR . The country of origin of the berries is Serbia.

Raspberries with the batch information in question have been sold in 62 stores in the Pirkanmaa and Varsinais-Suomi region. The batch has not been sold elsewhere in Finland.

The Food Agency recommends using foreign frozen berries only when heated. Salmonella is destroyed when heated to 70 degrees.

Lidl asks its customers who bought products with the batch information in question to return the products to a Lidl store, where the price of the product will be refunded.
