'Entire Stock' of Popular Candy Brand Recalled in 1 Country originally appeared on Parade.
Haribo is recalling its "entire stock" in one country after multiple bags of candy were discovered to have been contaminated by cannabis.
As reported by the BBC, several consumers in the Netherlands began to feel ill after eating sweets from a 1kg package of Haribo Happy Cola F!ZZ.
The NVWA, which is the country's food safety body, said that "dizziness" was one symptom reported after consumption of the affected candies, telling Dutch broadcaster SBS6 that "samples were taken and cannabis was found in them."
So far, three affected packages have been identified, each with a best-before date of January 2026 and lot code of L341-4002307906. Haribo has recalled "its entire stock as a precaution," per the publication, though it's not clear if that refers to just the Happy Cola F!ZZ line or if it encompasses all of their products in the Netherlands.
A representative for the brand told the BBC that it's cooperating with law enforcement investigators to "establish the facts around the contamination" and is taking the incident "very seriously."
"Do not eat the sweets," the NVWA emphasized, though plenty of jokers online quipped things like, "You say contaminated. I say blessed," and, "But wait.... do you have any of those contaminated bags still? Asking for a friend."'Entire Stock' of Popular Candy Brand Recalled in 1 Country first appeared on Parade on May 31, 2025

KKR raises conditional offer for German IT services firm Datagroup
(Reuters) -Frankfurt-listed IT services provider Datagroup SE said on Sunday that KKR has made a conditional proposal to increase the potential acquisition offer to up to 58 euros ($65.84) per share. KKR initially offered 54 euros per share in an all-cash transaction valuing Datagroup at approximately 450 million euros. Under the revised terms, the offer price will rise to 56.50 euros a share if the bidder secures at least 80% of outstanding shares and if it reaches 90%, the offer will stand at 58 euros per share. If neither of these thresholds is met, the original offer price will remain unchanged, the statement said, adding that the acceptance period runs until June 6, 2025. KKR also explicitly ruled out a further increase of the offer price. Datagroup will delist from the stock exchange once the purchase is settled, with closing expected in the third quarter of 2025. The IT services provider has about 3,700 employees at locations across Germany and expects revenue to grow to between 545 million euros and 565 million euros in the current year, the company said in March.

Ukraine says it hit more than 40 Russian bombers in drone attack
The Security Service of Ukraine oversaw a drone operation on Sunday that struck dozens of Russia's strategic bombers just ahead of planned peace talks in Istanbul. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed the 'absolutely brilliant' outcome of the attack, which he described as 'our most long-range operation' to date. Zelensky said the attack had been in planning for more than one and a half years. 'Of course, not everything can be revealed at this moment, but these are Ukrainian actions that will undoubtedly be in history books,' Zelensky said Sunday in a post on the social platform X. 'Ukraine is defending itself, and rightly so — we are doing everything to make Russia feel the need to end this war. Russia started this war, Russia must end it. Glory to Ukraine!' he continued. A military official told The Associated Press that the drones hit 41 planes stationed at military airfields on Sunday afternoon, including A-50, Tu-95 and Tu-22M aircraft. Moscow has previously used Tupolev Tu-95 and Tu-22 long-range bombers to launch missiles at Ukraine, while A-50s are used to coordinate targets and detect air defenses and guided missiles. The military source told the AP that the complex attack included the smuggling of first-person view drones into Russia, where they were then placed in mobile wooden houses. 'Later, drones were hidden under the roofs of these houses while already placed on trucks. At the right moment, the roofs of the houses were remotely opened, and the drones flew to hit Russian bombers,' the official told the AP, speaking on condition of anonymity to disclose details of the military operation. Zelensky said the Ukrainian officials involved in planning the operation were withdrawn from Russia with enough time to spare. The Russian Foreign Ministry confirmed the attack in a social media post but said the attacks only caught fire in the regions of Murmansk and Irkutsk, according to a Google translation of the statement. Russia said the fires had been put out with no casualties among service members or civilians. Russia also said it had detained 'some participants' of the attack. The Associated Press contributed.
