Braunschweig/Dresden. The Federal Office of Consumer Protection and Food Safety (BVL)) in Braunschweig warns against products from Saxon manufacturers. A ceramics manufacturer in Dresden, a trading company in Leipzig and a food producer in Lusatia are affected.
The Evergrate ceramics manufactory is a brand of the Dresden-based company Carbon Clouds GmbH. Among other things, it sells plate graters, dip bowls and grating bowls. According to the BVL, there is a possibility that several of these products may be contaminated, that lead is released. The limit value was at least exceeded. The products were sold via the company's own online store and via Amazon.
In a customer information leaflet, the company stated that "such a quality slip" had occurred "for the first time in the 40-year history of our family-run manufactory". However, the BVL had already issued a warning in July about a grater called Fernando warned. Carbon Clouds had sold them until April of this year. The limit values for lead were also exceeded at that time.
The food supervisors are also urgently warning against the consumption of Bayt Jeddy spicy curryin a 150-gram pack with a best-before date until February 1, 2026. The product is distributed by the Leipzig-based company Mohmad Nazmi Kahyata Express. The reason for the warning: the curry powder contains the unauthorized dyes Sudan I and Sudan IV. These are "synthetic azo dyes" that can be broken down into carcinogenic degradation products in the body, according to the BVL.
Of a more harmless nature is the warning issued back in July about Lusatian forest blueberries - lightly sugaredbottled in a 340 gram jar. The product has a shelf life until at least April 18, 2027 and comes from the house of Lausitzer Früchteverarbeitung GmbH in Sohland. It could contain stones. The blueberries were sold, among others, at Edeka, Discount, Market purchase, Kaufland and Rewe.
