Israel's Ministry of Health has announced an urgent recall of a popular brand of roasted sunflower seeds, "Sason Ha'Kola," due to a critical labeling error. The affected product, packaged in 150-gram bags, was found to contain salt despite the front label explicitly stating "without salt." This discrepancy poses a significant health risk, particularly for individuals on low-sodium diets or with medical conditions requiring sodium restriction.
The recall was initiated following a complaint from a consumer, prompting an investigation by the Ministry of Health's Food Service in the Central District. The company "Dean Marketing and Roasting 2021 Ltd.," in cooperation with the Ministry, is actively removing the product from all retail outlets nationwide.
The specific batches subject to the recall have barcodes 7290019297642 and expiration dates of January 26, 2027, August 12, 2027, and August 27, 2027. Consumers who have purchased these sunflower seeds are strongly advised not to consume them. For further information, customers can contact the manufacturer directly at 052-3112488.
