The Ministry of Health constantly keeps its attention high on the food safety of Italian citizens, and this time it has issued a new warning regarding a health risk linked to the capricciosa salad.
The danger of presence of glass fragments inside the product, which led to its withdrawal from supermarkets.
The report published on the Ministry website specifically concerns the capricious salad produced at the factories of Belmonte SASwhich is marketed under two different brands, namely Belmonte and Fontaneto. Both versions of the product were involved in the recall and are produced in the same factory, located in San Ponso, in the Turin area.
Belmonte SAS has communicated to the Ministry of Health the potential danger for consumers caused by the presence of glass fragments in some batches of capricciosa salad.
