A manufacturer’s beans may contain broken glass, which is why they are being recalled and should under no circumstances be consumed.

Update from November 13th, 1:40 p.m.: The food manufacturer puur bio has expanded its recall for beans in 340 gram jars. Previously, only the lot number ranges LB122222.46000 to LB122222.49000 were affected. However, according to produktwarning.eu, the company is now also warning that the lot number range LB121230.48000 to LB121230.53000 may contain broken glass.

The company previously announced that glass broke during production, which is why splinters in individual glasses could not be ruled out. Customers are strongly warned not to consume affected products. Meanwhile, the Federal Office for Food Safety is currently warning about a bratwurst product.

Original article from November 6th, 11:35 a.m.: Munich – Preserved foods are often bought in advance. However, if you have recently stocked up, you should check the products you bought again. A glass breakage occurred in the production of a manufacturer of crushed beans, so there could be shards in it. The beans should therefore under no circumstances be consumed. The product is under recall. These beans are:

Beans recalled due to broken glass – manufacturer warns against consumption

Please report the glass to your store and it will be replaced.” People who have purchased the affected product and have questions can contact the manufacturer.

The manufacturer’s warning is not in vain, as eating broken glass and other foreign objects can be very dangerous. In the worst case, this can cause internal injuries and even bleeding, writes produktwarnungen.eu. Nevertheless, there are still recalls every now and then because of foreign bodies, as was recently the case with a piece of Parmesan in which a shard was also found.

Beans could contain broken glass: if you have symptoms after consumption, seek medical help

If you notice a foreign body such as broken glass while eating, you should spit it out immediately. If the foreign body has already been swallowed, laxatives should under no circumstances be taken, reported focus.de. That could actually make the danger worse. Anyone who experiences symptoms such as shortness of breath, nausea, excessive salivation, pain or bleeding after consumption should urgently seek medical help.

Glass splinters can occur, especially with foods that are filled in glass jars. Capers from Netto were recently recalled for this reason.
