Foreign bodies found in Milupa children's cereal

The children's food manufacturer Milupa has issued a recall for several products in its muesli range: Before consuming "Milupa children's cereal fruits", "Milupa Kindermüsli Bircher" and "Milupa Children's Porridge Oats & Fruits" is therefore expressly warned.

The purchase price of the products will be refunded

Anyone who has packs with this product information at home can bring them back to the drugstore or supermarket branch where they bought them. The purchase price will be refunded on site.

According to the manufacturer, the affected batches were delivered to retailers from September 11, 2020 and have been on sale since then.

By now, however, they should have been removed from the shelves so that newly purchased goods are no longer dangerous. "After investigations, we are certain that no further batches of this product with a different best-before date or other Milupa products are affected," the company announced in a customer information sheet.
