Overview
- Carnis Vertriebs GmbH announced the recall Monday after a routine lab test found shigatoxin‑producing E. coli in the 100‑gram Gut & Günstig “Delikatess Salami fettreduziert,” and the notice did not cite any linked illnesses.
- Only packs with best‑before dates 15.04.2026 or 24.04.2026 that carry the identity mark DE EV 1 EU are affected, with sales limited to Edeka and Marktkauf stores in Niedersachsen, adjacent parts of Nordrhein‑Westfalen, Bremen, Sachsen‑Anhalt, Berlin and Brandenburg.
- Retailers have pulled the product from shelves, and customers are told not to eat it and to return it for a refund without a receipt.
- STEC, also called EHEC, can trigger watery or bloody diarrhea, severe stomach cramps, nausea, vomiting and fever, with symptoms often starting two to ten days after infection and the highest risk of complications like HUS in young children, older adults and people with weak immune systems.
- For questions or help with returns, Carnis is running a free hotline at +49 5423 969 293, and outlets note this follows a recent separate Kaufland salami recall tied to E. coli, reflecting ongoing food‑safety checks.
