Each day is enough to remember. Food, toys, electronic devices… Every day, products are withdrawn from sale after having undergone examinations highlighting risks for consumers.

According to the official website of the Ministry of the Economy, “the withdrawal can take place as long as the product is available in stores but has not yet been sold: professionals then withdraw them from shelves or warehouses”.

The recall, on the other hand, occurs when the products are already on store shelves. In this case, customers must return the food and other defective or suspicious products to the store in order to obtain a refund. They can also simply stop using the product and destroy it.

To inform you on the subject, the best thing is to regularly consult the official platform, RappelConso, launched by the public authorities in the spring of 2021. It is defined as “the public information site for consumers on recalls of products, foodstuffs or animal feed”.

You can also consult the official website of the brand where you are used to shopping: it has a “Product recall” tab where all the necessary information is listed. If you are a System U customer, Planet has summarized the list of recalled products at this time in the slideshow below.
