E. Leclerc has voluntarily recalled a range of Bio Village pure apple juice products sold across France due to contamination with mycotoxins, specifically a substance called patulin. The affected products are labeled as "Pure organic apple juice" and are available in 20 cl (200 milliliters) brick packages or in packs containing six of these smaller units. The recalled batches have specific barcodes: 3 564 707 095 211 and 3 564 707 097 956, with minimum durability dates of 17/09/2027 and 24/09/2027. These products were sold between 22/09/2026 and 08/10/2026 throughout France via E. Leclerc stores and other distribution channels.
Mycotoxins are toxic substances produced by certain types of fungi, which can grow on crops during farming or storage. These toxins can pose health risks if consumed in significant amounts over time. Patulin, in particular, is a mycotoxin that can be found in spoiled fruits and apple products, and its presence in food is a concern for food safety authorities.
Consumers who have purchased these affected products are advised not to consume them and should either dispose of them safely or return them to the point of sale for a refund. To get more information or assistance, customers can contact E. Leclerc directly by calling 0800865286. The company has taken this step to ensure consumer safety and to maintain trust in its products.
