Nébih draws attention to the thorough heat treatment of frozen vegetables
The quick-frozen vegetables and mixtures of vegetables produced by Greenyard’s plant in Baja –that are contaminated with listeria bacteria – may be marketed in Hungary as well. Therefore, the National Food Chain Safety Office (Nébih) asks consumers to thoroughly cook the products before use.
Nagy Attila, deputy head of the Nébih Food and Feed Safety Directorate, told M1 news channel on Friday that the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) published a common report on 3 July that frozen sweetcorn and possibly other frozen vegetables have caused epidemics in several EU countries since 2015. The infection, caused by a powerful variant of the bacterium Listeria monocytogenes, led to the Greenyard company’s plant in Baja. (MTI)
