McCain Recalls Pickers Cheesy Italian Pops Nationwide Over Undeclared Egg

The company says a packaging error left egg off the ingredient list, creating a serious risk for people with egg allergies.

Overview

  • McCain pulled all 230 g Pickers Cheesy Italian Pops sold across Germany after the state of Hesse warned the label fails to declare egg.
  • The recall covers every batch and every best-before date of the product.
  • People with an egg allergy are told not to eat it, since even small amounts can trigger severe reactions such as breathing trouble or anaphylaxis.
  • Buyers can claim a voucher by mailing the original barcode and batch number to McCain GmbH, Düsseldorfer Str. 13, 65760 Eschborn/Ts.
  • The company says it started the recall itself, apologized, and is extending it to France and Morocco, with questions directed to info.germany@mccain.com.
