Product recall: presence of salmonella in eggs at Leclerc
As with scams, product recalls have been aplenty lately. After the April controversy over the Ferrero brand, new products are affected. And precisely, a few days ago, a new product was recalled. According to the RappelConso site, the eggs of several brands, sold to Leclerc, are contaminated. Indeed, the experts discovered the presence of salmonella after a microbiological control. As a reminder, these bacteria are known to be responsible for salmonellosis.

The least we can say is that you have to be very careful. Indeed, salmonella can cause serious infections, especially in fragile people. And we think of young children, immunocompromised people or even the elderly. The period between contamination and the appearance of the first signs (incubation) is short, from 12 to 72 hours. So, if you have done the shopping in Lerclerc, take a good look in your fridge.
What are the references of the contaminated products?
After careful testing, two brands of egg cartons were recalled due to the presence of this bacterium. These are Coquille Belle France, and the brand Eggs from our regions. Don’t worry, the Objeko editorial staff will give you the references of the different boxes. The Eco+ brand eggs sold by Leclerc are the first on the list. These are “fresh eggs from free-range hens”. These are boxes of 10. Leclerc marketed them from 06/01/2022 to 06/24/2022. Their GTIN code 3450970169103.

What to do if you have consumed this product?
If you ever bought these products, do not consume them. Instead, return them to the point of sale or contact consumer service by telephone. For people who have consumed these products, we will have to be very careful about the symptoms. Indeed, by consuming them, you risk gastrointestinal disorders. Indeed, diarrhea and vomiting may appear between 6 and 72 hours after ingestion of contaminated products. If you have this, you should go straight to see your doctor. By notifying him of this consumption. For those who have nothing after 8 days, don’t panic, you risk nothing more.
