The classic sour cherries from the glass are a popular ingredient for various desserts. But be careful: The cherries from Rewe’s own brand “Ja” could now contain broken glass.
The Hungarian company “Gloster Kft.” now calls back canned sour cherries from the Rewe Group’s own brand “Ja” jar. The reason: It cannot be ruled out “that there may be small, transparent glass splinters in individual glasses,” said the company. The recall was made purely as a precaution.

These are the “sour cherries, pitted, sugared” with the EAN 4388844133211 of “Yes”. The glasses have a capacity of 680 grams and are marked with the best before date 06/27/2023. The batch concerned is 20/0139 GO 179, this imprint should be found on the lid. The recall applies nationwide. Other batches are not affected.
According to its own statement, the company has already taken the affected glasses out of its range. Since it cannot be ruled out that injuries will occur, the manufacturer strongly advises against consuming the sour cherries.
