The supermarket chain Lidl in Austria is recalling smoked rainbow trout fillets produced by Danforel A/S due to contamination with listeria bacteria. Customers will get their money back.
The affected product
The recall covers the product Nautica Regenbogen Forellenfilets Natur, 125 grams, with a use-by date of 03.11.2026. Due to the health risks, Lidl is urging customers to take note of the recall and not to eat the product.

What is listeria
Listeria are bacteria that can cause serious gastrointestinal illness and flu-like symptoms. The consequences can be severe for infants, young children, pregnant women, the elderly and the sick.
According to Lidl, the Austrian company was not the cause of the contamination, and Danforel A/S has apologised to those affected. For enquiries, the free customer service hotline 0800 500 810 is available Monday to Friday from 7:30 to 18:00.
