Mars Ireland recalls confectionery amid salmonella fears

Mars Ireland is recalling a batch of Galaxy Milk Bars and Maltesers Fun Size Bags due to the possible presence of salmonella. According to the Food Safety Authority of Ireland, last June Mars Ireland recalled a range of its products due to the possible presence of salmonella.

 

 

Two pallets of the products were on hold with an Irish distributor awaiting destruction but were placed on the market accidentally.


Mars Ireland is recalling the above specific batch of the 42g Galaxy Smooth Milk bar and Maltesers Fun Size bags. They have the batch codes: 720B1SLO00, best before 13.05.2018 (Galaxy);  720A1SLO00, best before 13.05.2018 (Maltesers).


The FSA of Ireland says that consumption of product from the implicated batches could cause salmonellosis. Symptoms can include diarrhea, stomach cramps, vomiting and fever. However, there have been no reports of illness.


Environmental Health Officers (EHOs) are requested, as part of routine inspections, to check businesses to determine if the implicated batches are on sale.


If found, EHOs will oversee a recall and ensure a point-of-sale notice is displayed in stores. Food businesses are requested to remove the affected batch of the two products from sale and clearly display a point-of-sale notice informing customers not to eat them.


Consumers who may have already consumed the implicated batches and are feeling unwell should seek medical advice.
