Mega Recall at Wojnar Due to Salmonella Risk: 19 Products Affected

The manufacturer Wojnar's Wiener Leckerbissen Delikatessenerzeugung GmbH is precautionarily recalling a variety of its convenience products. Affected are hummus, falafel, and salad items from several Billa private labels as well as products from the brand Habibi & Hawara. The background is a salmonella detection in the raw tahini used during a routine check.

The supplier Wojnar's Wiener Leckerbissen Delikatessenerzeugung GmbH is recalling BILLA IMMER GUT HAMSHUKA HUMMUS VEGETABLE 210G, sold up to and including 15.04.2025, for reasons of consistent consumer protection.

During a routine check, Salmonella spp. was detected in the raw tahini/sesame paste. No contamination could be confirmed in the product made with it so far. Nevertheless, it cannot be completely ruled out that a potential health risk from Salmonella spp. may exist in the ready-to-eat product. As a precaution, the entire stock of the potentially affected product, sold up to and including 15.04.2025, is being recalled - consumption of the mentioned product is therefore discouraged. The stock of the affected product has been removed from sale.

- Affected products that have already been purchased can be returned immediately even without a receipt

The supplier Wojnar's Wiener Leckerbissen Delikatessenerzeugung GmbH regrets the incident and apologizes to all customers for the inconvenience caused. The warning does not indicate that the health risk was caused by the producer, manufacturer, importer, or distributor.

Consumption of food contaminated with salmonella can cause diarrhea, abdominal pain, and occasionally vomiting and mild fever. Generally, the symptoms subside on their own after several days. In case of severe or persistent symptoms, a doctor should be consulted.
