Salad withdrawn from supermarkets: alert from the Ministry of Health, reimbursement can be requested

Food alert from the Ministry of Health that issued a physical hazard recall in a food product. Specifically, it is, as mentioned, the Good Choice potato oil and vinegar salad.

The name of the plant is Wojnar’s Wiener Leckerbissen based in Vienna (Austria). The product, on the other hand, is marketed by ALDI Srl, a well-known German discount active in the large-scale retail trade (large-scale distribution) sector.
