Recalls stuffed shrimp - contains salmon
A. Espersen is recalling its product 'Rahbek Stuffed Shrimp' sold at Netto due to incorrect packaging that included salmon, posing a risk to fish-allergic consumers.
The Danish company A. Espersen has issued a recall for its product 'Rahbek Indbagte Rejer' (Stuffed Shrimp), which was sold in Netto stores. The recall was prompted by the discovery that another product, 'Indbagt Laks med julienne-sauce' (Stuffed Salmon with Julienne Sauce), had been mistakenly packaged together with the shrimp. This packaging error was disclosed in a notice on the Danish Food Authority's website.
The recall affects packages produced on November 28, 2025, and it is crucial for consumers to be aware of this issue, particularly those with fish allergies, who are advised not to consume the shrimp product due to the potential presence of salmon. The sale of the affected shrimp took place across various Netto stores located in regions such as Zealand, Lolland-Falster, Bornholm, Samsø, and Ærø during a time frame from mid-December 2025 to early January 2026.
This incident highlights the importance of food safety and accurate labeling in preventing cross-contamination. It raises concerns over the monitoring and control processes within food production companies to ensure that such packaging errors do not compromise consumer health. As the recall progresses, it will be essential for affected consumers to return the product and stay informed about updates from the Danish Food Authority regarding food safety issues.
