PSA: Salmonella in some chocolate products
The Strauss company announced today that some of its products, under the Elite name, are tainted with salmonella. To that end they issued a recall on a list of products.
The list, from the JPost website:
- Chocolate bars (Cow, Blondie, and Splendid brand) with a best before date between 01.10.22-24.04.23
- Pesek Zman, Memolada and Crunch chocolate snack bars with a best before date between 01.12.22 - 01.04.23
- Taami, Egozi, and Kif Kef chocolate bars with a best before date between 01.07.22 - 15.01.23
- “Energy” chocolate coated rice cakes and chocolate cereal bars with a best before date between 01.07.22 - 15.01.23
- Reva L’Sheva snack bars with a best before date between 01.05.22 - 15.12.23
- Brownie cake, Pesek Zman cake and rolls with a best before date between 10.07.22 - 31.08.22
- Chocolate “XL” wafers with a best before date between 15.11.22 - 01.01.23
- “Bonbonierre” selection boxes dated best before 9.4.23 and 21.2.23 only.
If you have purchased the affected products, you can get a compensation voucher in exchange for returning them or maybe even simply disposing them. I did see online that people have had a hard time getting through on the Strauss customer service line, so good luck. A lot of people are probably trying to call right now.
Announcing this after Pesach is not so horrible - many of us probably overate over the holiday and use a bit of a break from the treats anyway :-)
I did notice that many, if not all, of these items were either kitniyot over Pesach or chametz, so I havent bought any of them....... I guess sticking to the kitniyot minhag provided some protection....

Did they announce that all the products were sold in Israel, or if some were sold in the US, for example??
ReplyDeleteit seemed to me that the context of the announcement and the reports were Israel but I didnt see anything explicit about that
