Israel's Ministry of Health has issued a public warning against consuming two brands of frozen food products, "Balfour's Cigars" (pastels) and "Ilana's Kube" (kibbeh), citing concerns over their unknown origins and lack of registration with the ministry. The recall affects all package sizes and expiration dates for both brands. The warning came after routine inspections by food safety officials and a complaint from a citizen revealed that the manufacturers are not registered with the Ministry of Health and their sources are unknown.

Consumers are strongly advised not to eat these products. The Ministry of Health urges the public to purchase food items only from recognized sources and authorized distributors. Food safety inspectors are continuing their investigation to locate and remove any products being sold from unregistered sources. The ministry stated that if any violations of Israeli legislation and regulations are found, all available measures will be taken in cooperation with relevant authorities.
