Pork sausages in Savoyard style sold by the stores Fresh, Grand Frais and Mon-marché have been found to be contaminated with salmonella, a type of bacteria that can cause serious illness. The affected products were sold from 30/09/2026 to 05/10/2026 throughout France. The contamination was identified by BCT 500, a laboratory specializing in food safety, and the recall was voluntary, meaning the stores chose to remove the product without being ordered to do so by local authorities. The product, branded as Ready-to-cook - Gourmet selection, is packaged in a plastic tray containing two sausages under a protective atmosphere, which helps preserve the food. The batch recalled has the barcode 162 680 008 and an expiry date. The sale period for the affected products was from 30/09/2026 to 05/10/2026, and the geographic sales area was the entire France. Consumers are advised not to consume the product and to destroy it or return it to the sales point for a reimbursement. Foodborne illnesses caused by salmonella are characterized by gastrointestinal disorders such as diarrhea, vomiting, and abdominal pain, which typically begin suddenly and may be accompanied by fever and headaches. These symptoms usually appear 6 hours to 72 hours after consuming contaminated food. The illness can be more severe in young children, pregnant women, people with weakened immune systems, and the elderly. People who have consumed these products and are experiencing symptoms are encouraged to consult their general practitioner and inform them of their consumption. However, if no symptoms appear within 7 days of consuming the affected products, it is unnecessary to worry or seek medical attention. The stores and health authorities are working to ensure that all affected products are removed from shelves and that consumers are properly informed about the recall.
