They remained on the shelves for two weeks. Button mushrooms from the Ruol brand were recalled this Monday due to a “presence of pesticides beyond the regulatory threshold”, indicates the Rappel Conso site, which warns of dangerous products marketed in the country.
In detail, these are 250 g trays of mushrooms which are affected by this recall. They were sold in certain Leclerc supermarkets in nine departments (Ain, Drôme, Isère, Loire, Rhône, Saône-et-Loire, Savoie, Haute-Savoie and Vaucluse) between Tuesday March 19 and Tuesday April 2.

In the event of consumption of the product, the consumer incurs “exceeding the authorized pesticide limits”, summarizes Rappel Conso. The government site thus encourages people to “no longer consume” these mushrooms, to destroy them or to return them to the point of sale, where a refund will be offered.
Two pieces of data make it possible to identify the trays concerned: the GTIN (an international and unique identification code) 3000047038131 and the batch number 180324.
A telephone number has been set up to assist the consumer in their procedures: 03 23 72 22 13. The recall procedure will end on Thursday April 18.
