A recent alert from a distribution company and various supermarket chains has caught the attention of consumers due to a food recall concerning a specific batch of basil pasta sauce. While the notification has been made by the distributors, the official health ministry website has yet to reflect this alert in its dedicated section. This situation raises questions about food safety and the necessary transparency from companies regarding potential hazards.
The recall has emerged in response to concerns over possible glass fragments in the sauce, prompting immediate action to protect consumers. Shoppers are urged to stay informed and vigilant about the products they purchase, especially when it comes to recalls that could affect their health.
Details of the Recall
The food safety alert was issued by the distribution company alongside several supermarket chains that carry the affected **Selex** brand products, including well-known retailers like Famila, Mercatò, and A&O. According to reports from *Fanpage*, there has yet to be an official announcement on the health ministry’s portal, although it is expected that updates will soon be provided in the appropriate section concerning food recalls.
The focus of this recall, announced on September 30, involves **Selex Basil Pasta Sauce**, manufactured by Gustibus Alimentari s.r.l. Unipersonale, located in Assoro, within the Enna province of Sicily. This sauce is distributed under the Selex commercial group and is available in various supermarkets across Italy.
Batch Information
Only one batch is affected by this recall, identified as number **LB187DB01**, with a minimum shelf life date set for July 2029. Each jar contains 400 grams of the sauce, packaged in glass containers.
The reason behind this recall is the reported presence of **glass shards** in the sauce, leading the manufacturer to initiate the recall as a precautionary measure. *Fanpage* has indicated that the affected jars of Selex sauce have already been removed from store shelves in recent days.
What to Do If You Have the Product
For consumers who have already purchased this sauce, there is a clear course of action. If the jar contains the specified batch number and expiration date, it is critical to **not consume** the product. Instead, it should be returned to the place of purchase for a full refund. For any additional questions or concerns, the company can be contacted via their toll-free number at 800 992 992.
Other Recent Recalls
In addition to the basil pasta sauce recall, there have been other recent alerts published on the health ministry’s website. One involves **Sol&Mar salami** sold at Lidl, which has been flagged due to undeclared milk traces on the packaging.
Another alert concerns a batch of **Roccaverano Dop goat cheese** linked to the presence of Escherichia coli Stec, while another recall has been issued for **yellow pasta eggs** due to chemical risks. Notably, there has been a recent recall of eggs due to salmonella concerns as well.
