Israel: Tnuva under fire after animal parts again found in frozen green beans

August 20, 2022 from Aviparshan

"The Tnuva food manufacturer agreed on Friday to pull some of its frozen products from Israeli grocery stores three days after a customer found bits of snake in a bag of green beans.

"The incident took place two weeks after bits of dead mouse were found in another bag of frozen green beans.

"According to Hebrew media, Tnuva refused to issue a recall after the latest incident, which would require a public announcement and a request from customers to return relevant products to stores if they were purchased recently. Channel 12 reported that the Health Ministry even threatened to hold a hearing on the matter.The incident took place two weeks after bits of dead mouse were found in another bag of frozen green beans.

"Tnuva’s frozen vegetable line, Sunfrost, told the Calcalist daily in a statement that the Health Ministry had not requested the more drastic step of a recall and instead agreed to suffice with the pulling of products with the same batch number from grocery stores, without a public announcement.

"'Customers who purchased the product will be able to contact the company’s hotline at 1-800-282-844 from Sunday and receive a credit voucher. We apologize for the one-off mishap and will continue to work to ensure the quality and integrity of the company’s products,' Sunfrost added."
