The ‘Día Selection’ brand of chicken patties has been found to contain Salmonella by health authorities.
After receiving notification through SCIRI, the rapid information exchange system between autonomous communities, the Spanish Agency for Food Safety and Nutrition (Aesan) activated the food alert protocol.
The product in question is batch number 250969 and has an expiration date of 19/04/2025.
Plastic containers are used to present these packages, which contain six units each weighing 90 grammes, for a total weight of 540 grammes. They are stored in the refrigerator.
The initial distribution encompassed nine autonomous communities: Andalusia, Aragon, Asturias, Castile and Leon, Castile-La Mancha, Catalonia, Valencian Community, Galicia, and Madrid.
Nevertheless, AESAN issued a cautionary note regarding potential secondary redistributions to other regions.
It is recommended that consumers who have this product refrain from eating it.
It is advised that you visit a health centre immediately if you have consumed the contaminated hamburgers and are experiencing symptoms such as diarrhoea, vomiting, fever, or headache, which are indicative of salmonellosis.
The authorities’ actions
The immediate withdrawal of the product from points of sale was coordinated by AESAN in collaboration with the afflicted autonomous communities. The SCIRI (Spanish Agency for International Trade and Development) facilitated the rapid dissemination of the alert to all potentially affected regions in order to safeguard public health.
Salmonella is one of the primary causes of foodborne illness, and this microbiological contamination poses a substantial health risk. To monitor potential cases associated with this outbreak, authorities are maintaining their surveillance protocol.
