Recall of batches of Ferrero Kinder Surprise eggs

The Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) has advised that a food recall by Ferrero of some Kinder Surprise chocolate products is underway due to a link with a food poisoning outbreak of Salmonella.

The FSAI, together with the Health Protection Surveillance Centre of the HSE, is investigating this ongoing food poisoning outbreak which is affecting Ireland, the UK and a number of other European countries.

To date, there have been 10 cases in Ireland with the same strain of Salmonella responsible for the UK outbreak. A number of these Irish cases have involved young children, all of whom have fully recovered. The FSAI is warning consumers who may have the recalled products at home not to eat them.

The batches being recalled are:

Kinder Surprise 20g and Kinder Surprise 20g x3

All best before dates between July 11 and October 7, 2022
