Israel's Ministry of Health has ordered the recall of several types of dark chocolate produced by Pobeda Confectionery Ltd. in Russia and distributed by Better Choice Ltd. and Aksrus Ltd. The recall was initiated after a consumer complaint revealed the presence of undeclared milk allergens in the products. The affected items include COTE D'IVOIRE 60%, GHANA 67%, COLOMBIA 80%, and DOMINICANA 77% dark chocolate, all in 100g packages with various expiration dates extending into late 2027. Consumers with milk allergies or other sensitivities are strongly advised not to consume these products. In coordination with the Ashkelon District Food Service, the company is removing the chocolate from retail locations. Customers can seek refunds at their point of purchase or by contacting the company's support line at 050-909-1517. This action follows a recent inspection of Nir and Nitzan Trade Ltd. and the reinstatement of a quality mark for Strauss's chocolate factory in Nof HaGalil after a four-month suspension due to salmonella contamination.
