Czech authorities ordered the withdrawal of tens of thousands of frozen pizzas made by local manufacturer Guseppe after they were found to contain insect larvae.

 "Our inspectors
found 9,990 rotting pizzas in Guseppe's depots," said Ivo Klimes, a
spokesman for the Czech food inspection agency SZPI. He said 12,000 other
pizzas had already been put on sale in the Czech Republic and would be
withdrawn. "But people have already bought a certain amount," Klimes
said. Set up in 1993, the firm is a subsidiary of Norway's Orkla group.
