In September 2026, multiple food recalls were issued in Germany due to potential plastic contamination in frozen and fresh products.

On September 8, Netto Marken-Discount recalled Snackmaster Rösti-Fries (450g) manufactured by Schne-frost Ernst Schnetkamp GmbH & Co. KG. The recall was initiated because of the potential presence of plastic fragments, which pose a “choking hazard” and risks of injury to the mouth, throat, or gastrointestinal tract.

Following this, on September 24, Aldi Nord issued a recall for ‘Meine Metzgerei’ Fresh Turkey Schnitzel ‘Wiener Art’ (800g) produced by Heidemark Landfrische GmbH & Co. KG. Similar to the previous incident, the manufacturer reported that sharp plastic fragments may have entered the product during production, creating risks of injury or choking.
