dm recalls spread due to incorrect content - dm recalls mislabeled tomato-feta spread over hidden cashew allergen risk

German retail chain dm has issued a recall for its 'dmBio Dried Tomato & Feta Gourmet Spread' due to incorrect labelling. The affected product may contain cashews, an allergen not declared on the packaging. This poses a risk to consumers with cashew allergies or intolerances.

The recall applies specifically to jars with a best-before date of June 4, 2027. These jars feature a 'Nabio' lid, distinguishing them from unaffected batches. Instead of the labelled tomato-feta spread, some contain 'Cashew Cream Spread with Dried Tomato & Pine Nuts'.

The mislabelling means cashews, a known allergen, are present but not listed on the ingredients. While the product is safe for those without cashew allergies, it could trigger severe reactions in sensitive individuals. dm has advised customers with allergies to avoid consumption and return the product to any dm store for a refund.

No manufacturer details for the Nabio-branded lid have been provided. The brand name appears on Swiss retailer vitaminplus.ch, though no direct link to the product's production has been confirmed.

Consumers who have purchased the affected jars should check the best-before date and lid type. Those with cashew allergies are urged to return the product immediately. The recall remains limited to this specific batch, with no wider safety concerns reported for other dmBio spreads.
