Possible plastic in smoothie
Germany: Innocent Alps has recalled one of its smoothies due to potential plastic contamination.
Innocent Super Smoothie Antioxidant 360ml with date 27-5-17 and batch designation F7087J is affected. The bottling time is between 12 and 1:30pm.
The firm said a small number of bottles in this batch could contain a foreign body in the form of a plastic part. If swallowed it could pose a suffocation hazard.
The foreign body is a temperature logger in the smoothie which came from the UK and was also sent to Switzerland, according to the RASSF portal.
