© rappel.conso.gouv.frWhat are the health risks?
The recall is linked to a expiration date error : the printed DLC, as of August 31, 2026, would not correspond to the true shelf life of these cordon bleu.

Beyond the actual shelf life, the proliferation of bacteria can cause digestive problems: stomach aches, diarrhea, vomiting, sometimes fever. Young children, the elderly, pregnant women and immunocompromised people remain most at risk. In case of consumption and the appearance of unusual symptoms, it is recommended to consult a doctor promptly.
