Hummus and coriander the latest products to be recalled over listeria fears
The Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) has announced two more food product recalls over listeria fears. The latest recalls, announced on Tuesday, relate to various brands of potted coriander products made in Ireland, and sold in all of the large retailers, and to a batch of hummus made in the UK. The FSAI said a range of branded potted coriander products are being recalled by O'Hanlon Herbs due to the possible presence of Listeria monocytogenes. The recall affects several batches of product, which are sold in Dunnes, Tesco, SuperValu, Aldi, Lidl, Marks and Spencer, Nolans and Mortons. The full list of the recalled batches can be found on the FSAI website. The authority is also recalling a batch of UK-made Tom & Ollie Traditional Hummus due to the possible presence of listeria monocytogenes. The recall affects 150g packets of the hummus with the batch code VG189, and a use by date of August 8, 2025. But the authority said there is no evidence that the recall of the hummus product is linked to the recent listeriosis outbreak related to ready-to-eat meals, or to the subsequentrecall of spinach and mixed leaves products. Consumers have been advised not to eat the implicated batches involved in the two latest recalls. Branded potted coriander products are being recalled by O'Hanlon Herbs due to the possible presence of Listeria monocytogenes. Retailers have been requested to remove the implicated batches from sale and display recall notices at point-of-sale. Wholesalers and distributors have been requested to contact their affected customers and recall the implicated batches and provide a point-of-sale recall notice to their retailer customers. And caterers have been advised not to use the implicated batches. Last month, one adult died in Ireland as a result of listeria poisoning and there were at least nine confirmed cases of the illness towards the end of July. That prompted a major recall of ready meals, which extended to some 200 products made by Ballymaguire Foods in Dublin, which were all removed from shelves in Tesco, Centra and Supervalu due to the contamination. Last weekend, the FSAI also recalled a range of spinach and mixed leave products following the detection of listeria monocytogenes. That recall involved batches of Egan's Irish Baby Spinach, a range of batches of McCormack Family Farms spinach and lettuce leaves, and certain batches of SuperValu Spinach, and Tesco Mild Spinach, 350g. Symptoms of listeria can include mild flu-like symptoms such as gastrointestinal symptoms including nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea. Symptoms can be more severe in rare cases. Some people are more vulnerable to listeria monocytogenes infections, including pregnant women, babies, and people with weakened immune systems, including the elderly. The incubation period, the time between initial infection and first symptoms appearing, is on average three weeks but can range between three and 70 days.

Food recalls and the role of supermarkets
Sir, – I'm amazed there has been no public or media discussion of the role of supermarkets in the recent food recall due to possible Listeriosis contamination. If, as a doctor, I used a faulty vaccine or prescribed a faulty drug, I would be expected to check my practice data and contact all those affected. Almost every customer of the big supermarkets uses a loyalty card. With the click of a mouse, they could have identified the majority of customers affected. READ MORE They could have contacted them, advised them not to use the products and offered a refund. Tesco certainly did not. I can't speak for the other supermarkets involved, but I don't think any of them did. I hope the consumer regulatory authorities are contacting them. It seems the loyalty in loyalty cards is a one-way street when profits are at stake. – Yours, etc, DR CLAIRE GAUGHRAN, Carrigaline, Co Cork.
