A national recall has just been launched in France for organic extra-fine green beans sold at Carrefour, due to suspected pieces of glass in certain jars. According to the official RappelConso website, this recall targets a product marketed nationwide between August 28, 2025 and March 31, 2026. If you have jars of organic vegetables in your cupboard, it is better to check closely.
The product concerned is the jar of Carrefour BIO extra-fine green beans of 330 g, identified by the barcode GTIN 3560070819362 and the lot G255 LA06 MADAGASCARwith a minimum durability date set at June 30, 2028. RappelConso specifies: “Due to the risk of injury/adverse effects following the ingestion of this product, as a precaution, it is recommended that people who have products belonging to the batch(es) described above not consume them.” A precision that calls for an organic product.
Why these Carrefour Bio extra-fine green beans are recalled
According to RappelConso, the recall of Carrefour Bio extra-fine green beans is linked to a suspicion of the presence of pieces of glass in certain jars. This type of problem corresponds to the category of inert foreign bodies such as glass, metal, plastic, paper or textile described by the official system, because it can cause cuts in the mouth, throat or digestive tract if ingested. The alert was published on April 30, 2026 and concerns sales made in Carrefour stores throughout France.
Faced with this risk, the authorities and Carrefour apply the precautionary principle. A shard of glass, even a very small one, can mix with the beans and injure the mouth or esophagus. The recall, voluntary in nature according to RappelConso, remains active until June 29, 2026 to allow customers to return the affected jars and obtain a refund.
