Product recall: avocados recalled throughout Europe

Product recall: avocados recalled throughout France

Several batches of avocados are currently the subject of a recall throughout Europe. The reason ? They have excessive levels of pesticides.

If you were planning to prepare guacamole for your guests this evening, be careful. Marketed avocados reportedly contain excessive doses of pesticides.

Which batches are affected?

These are “Hass Colombie avocados from the Georges Helfer brand” marketed by Scarmor. To recognize them, the following references must be taken into account:

  • Food / Fruits and vegetables AVOCADO HASS COLOMBIA BR31987
  • Marque: GEORGES HELFER
  • Model or reference: Avocado bulk caliber 20 BR31987
  • • Lot BR31987 Packaging: BULK PACKAGE OF 4KG
  • Marketing date: 03/06/2024
  • Storage temperature: Product to be stored at room temperature
  • Geographical sales area: entire Europe
  • Distributors: SCARMOR

Exceeding authorized pesticide limits

If these batches were recalled, it is because it was noted that the authorized limits of pesticides were exceeded.

Consequently, the Rappel Conso website invites all consumers to no longer consume these avocados and to return them to the point of sale.

About author

I pass by being that person liable to duty, but who cannot resist the flights of imagination. I have always loved the legends, the myths and the stories of the old and distant times with my whole being. In high school I fell in love with the history of art and I made it the object of my university studies. Once I graduated, I dusted off an old flame: that of children's literature. I rediscovered the beauty and importance of illustrated books and books, where, to a quality text, images are added that give strength and enrich what is narrated with meaning. It can be said that illustrators often make real works of art! It was then that I decided to follow this passion of mine both as a volunteer, entering the ranks of readers born to read, and in my work as a librarian. I am a greedy devoured of illustrated books (I have an absolute weakness for the stories that have bears or wolves as protagonists!), I love simple stories that know how to strike and surprise. I hate pigeon-holed books in a specific age group and readers in a certain category of readings. I think everyone is different and deserves to choose (and be chosen by the books) without constraints, in complete freedom! [email protected]
