In a statement last week, Reeva Foods cited an “alleged detection” of salmonella Stanley in a specific batch of its instant noodles produced by Euro Food Service, a Ukrainian manufacturer of Reeva products.
The company said it had launched an internal probe and withdrew the batches, adding: “The safety of our consumers is our top priority.”
Cases have been reported in Austria, Britain, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, France, Germany, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland and Sweden, authorities said.
They cited microbiological evidence that showed an outbreak strain detected in Germany and Lithuania in chicken-flavoured and hot-chicken-flavoured noodle products. They said further investigation was needed.
