Israel's Ministry of Health announced the destruction of 53 kilograms of beef products from the "Super Zol and Bagdol" butcher shop, located in the Afsalom Industrial Zone within the Eshkol Regional Council. The action followed an inspection by ministry inspectors and a local veterinarian from Eshkol-Western Negev.
The inspection revealed that the business operated without licenses and in poor sanitary conditions. Inspectors found products prepared in violation of the law, including the freezing of fresh products, thawing of frozen meats, and grinding and seasoning of meat. Additionally, products lacked manufacturer details and expiration dates, posing a potential public health risk.
Consequently, based on instructions from the responsible district veterinarian, the non-consumable beef products were confiscated and destroyed. The Ministry of Health emphasized that improper handling, storage, or marketing of beef, poultry, and fish products can harm public health.
The ministry urged anyone who purchased products from the shop lacking identification or past their expiration date to refrain from consuming them and to dispose of them. The Ministry of Health and local authorities stated they will continue enforcement actions to protect public health.
