Recall date 28.11.2024
Product name Mont d'Or Fruitiere des Jarrons Cheese
Brand / company Fruitiere des Jarrons
Hazard / issue - The Centre for Food Safety (CFS) noted a notification from the French authorities that the above-mentioned batch of product might have been contaminated with Yersinia enterocolitica and is being recalled. - Subsequent to an earlier announcement that a kind of cheese imported from France might have been contaminated with Yersinia enterocolitica ( https://www.cfs.gov.hk/english/press/20241122_11290.html ), a follow-up investigation showed that another batch of the affected product has also been imported to Hong Kong. - Yersinia enterocolitica can cause Yersiniosis, which is characterised by common symptoms of gastroenteritis such as fever, diarrhoea (often bloody in young children) and abdominal pain. The bacterium is usually acquired by eating or drinking contaminated food, including undercooked meat, unpasteurised milk products or contaminated water. Anyone can get Yersiniosis, but young children, the elderly, and people with weak immune systems are at a higher risk.
Remedy / action
  • Should not consume the product concerned, regardless of batches - The importer concerned has stopped sales, removed from shelves the affected product upon the CFS's instructions and has initiated a recall.
  • - The CFS will continue to follow up, closely liaise with the French authorities and take appropriate action.
  • An investigation is ongoing.
  • Stop using or selling the affected product immediately if they possess any of it
