Massive recall of compotes: the supermarket chain concerned

Do you like to end your meals with a sweet note, for example by taking a compote? Pay attention to the product you choose! Pots of this preparation have been the subject of a recall imposed by prefectural decree since Monday, September 19, 2022, indicates Rappel Conso.
