Foreign objects can cause injury
“The presence of foreign bodies, in particular hard and/or pointed or sharp, in a food product, represents a real danger for the consumer in the event of accidental ingestion”noted ANSES. In this case, yogurts have been recalled, because the inert materials detected may present a “risk of injury or adverse effects following ingestion”.
