Recall of Kinder products widened amid concerns about salmonella (Border Telegraph)

Products are being recalled, no matter what their best before date, the Food Standards Agency said.

Tina Potter, head of incidents at the FSA, said: “Consumers should follow the advice in the latest recall notice, which details all of the products which may pose a risk. Ferrero said it acknowledged “internal inefficiencies, creating delays in retrieving and sharing information in a timely manner” and said these had “impacted the speed and effectiveness of the investigations”. A recall of Kinder chocolate products amid salmonella fears has been extended to include all of those manufactured at a site in Belgium, regardless of their best-before date.
