The background is a possible connection to a salmonella outbreak. Around 63 people in the UK, mostly young children, had contracted salmonella, the PA news agency previously reported. According to AGES, Austria is “not yet affected”.
However, there are said to have been some infections in Germany, France, Sweden, the Netherlands and Ireland. In Germany, batches of Kinder Surprise eggs (pack of three) with a sell-by date between April and June 2022 have been recalled, as have Kinder-Schoko-Bons, Kinder-Schoko-Bons White with a sell-by date between May and September 2022 and the products Kinder-Surprise Maxi ( 100 grams), children’s mini eggs (100 grams) and children’s mix packs containing one of the above items with an expiry date between August and September 2022.
All items were made in the same factory, according to Ferrero. The Ministry of Health and AGES are constantly monitoring what is happening and will inform you immediately if Austria is also affected, according to the Agency for Health and Food Safety (AGES).
