G. Williford International Ltd. announced an urgent voluntary recall of its "Light Syrup Fruit Compote" product, weighing 820 grams (480 grams drained), under the "Beit Yehuda" brand. The affected product has barcode 7296073748762, an expiration date of May 2, 2029, and batch number E122 4100/01044 624. The compote is manufactured in China by Hainan Xinjiafu Food Co. and imported by G. Williford International.

The recall was initiated following an internal quality check that revealed a potential peeling of polymer material from the packaging seal. This peeling could lead to the presence of polymer particles within the product itself. Consumers who have purchased the affected product are urged not to consume it.

The company is coordinating with the Ministry of Health's Central District Food Service to collect the product from distribution channels. The company has provided a consumer hotline for inquiries.

This recall follows two other recent product recalls in Israel. Just yesterday, "Tahina Alzaim" announced a recall of its tahini products due to the detection of Salmonella bacteria, following a Ministry of Health inspection in the Northern District. Last week, "A. Arba Ktzabim Meats Ltd." recalled its "Jerusalem Kishke" product after a Ministry of Health inspection at the company's factory uncovered serious labeling deficiencies.
