Rewe warns: recall of cheese and fish due to risk of listeria!

The issue of food safety is more relevant than ever, and now a recall at Rewe is causing uneasy feelings. As Ruhr24 reports, the recall affects several products that may be contaminated with dangerous bacteria. The focus is particularly on raclette cheese and various fish products. A serious matter that gives consumers food for thought.

The raclette is the “Entremont” variety, which was offered in different pack sizes: 125 grams, 200 grams and 1 kilogram. The affected best-before dates extend until November 2025. The reason for the recall is the possible contamination with listeria, a bacterium that can particularly occur in raw foods. The recommendation is clear: consumption should be urgently avoided.

The recall in detail

In addition to cheese products, various fish products must also join the recall. Here, the Ostseefisch brand shows that, among other things, fine herring fillets according to the herring style and noble herring fillets are affected. Herbal herring and smoked herring fillets can also be found on the list. The best-before dates also vary, although the first products could be critical as early as October 23, 2025.

Listeria is not an unknown danger for many. Pregnant women, older people and those with weakened immune systems are particularly at risk. The symptoms of an infection can range from fever and diarrhea to body and muscle aches. It is therefore all the more important to find out about such recalls in good time.

What consumers should do now

Anyone who has purchased one of the affected products can return it to any Rewe branch without a receipt and the full purchase price will be refunded. A customer-friendly service that accommodates people in this delicate situation.

Consumers should be particularly vigilant in the coming days and keep an eye on their purchases in the Rewe hustle and bustle. Maybe it's time to take a closer look at the packaging on your next visit.
Hopefully it remains the case that such recalls are the exception rather than the rule. That's why you should always choose carefully and rely on proven brands.

Interestingly, recalls are not unique to the food industry. There are also regular reports of dangerous products in other areas. The connection between quality and safety remains a central topic in the consumer debate.

Let's stay informed and protect our health - that's the motto in uncertain times, and everyone is well advised to stay careful.
