Food recalls in France

Overview

Authorities in France have issued multiple food recalls involving organic apple juice and canned tuna due to safety concerns.

Initial recalls included Bio Village organic apple juice sold at E. Leclerc stores, which was flagged for patulin contamination. Anses noted that high doses of this mycotoxin can cause intestinal disorders, kidney function disruption, and weight loss.

Simultaneously, Repère U brand canned tuna sold at U supermarkets was recalled due to dented packaging. This defect poses a health risk as it may cause micro-leaks or improper sealing, potentially leading to product alteration. Subsequent reports specified that the recall affects six references of whole tuna in natural liquid, including 312g cans of line-caught listao tuna. Consumers are advised to check barcodes and lot numbers to avoid consuming the affected products.
