Food Safety Authority Of Ireland recall a batch of Gillot cru Petit Camembert due to possible presence of Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC).
Alert Summary dated Wednesday, August 27th 2025.
Category 1: For Action. Alert Notification: 2025.45. Product Identification: Gillot cru Petit Camembert; pack size: 150g. Batch Code: Best before: 26.08.2025. Country Of Origin: France.
Message: The above batch of French produced Gillot cru Petit Camembert is being recalled due to the possible presence of Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC). Recall notices will be displayed at point-of-sale.
Nature Of Danger: Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC), also known as verocytotoxigenic E. coli(VTEC), are a specific group of E. coli. While most E. coli are harmless and live in the intestines of healthy humans, STEC produce a powerful toxin which can cause severe illness. Symptoms include abdominal cramps and diarrhoea which is sometimes bloody. Usually there is little or no fever, and patients recover within 5 to 10 days. In some people however, particularly children under 5 years of age and the elderly, the infection can cause a complication called haemolytic uraemic syndrome(HUS), in which the red blood cells are destroyed and the kidneys can stop working properly. The time between the initial infection and the first symptoms appearing is typically between 3 and 4 days but can range between 1 and 8 days.
Action Required:Manufacturers, Wholesalers, Distributors, Caterers and Retailers: Retailers: Same are requested to remove the implicated batch from sale and display notices at point-of-sale. Consumers: Consumers are advised not to eat the implicated batch.
