Lidl Expands Trout Fillet Recall Over Listeria, Dates Up to 3 November
Published · Updated
The supplier Danforel A/S has expanded its recall of Nautica rainbow trout fillets sold at Lidl in Germany after Listeria bacteria were found in the product. The update, published on Friday 23 October, adds new use by dates to the recall that started on Tuesday 20 October.
The recall now covers "Nautica Regenbogen Forellenfilets Natur, 125g" with the use by dates 31 October, 1 November and 3 November 2026. The first recall concerned the Natur and Pfeffer (pepper) varieties with the use by date 20 October 2026. Other Danforel products and other Nautica products are not affected.
The fillets were sold in Lidl stores in Baden-Württemberg, Bavaria, Hesse, North Rhine-Westphalia, Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland. Listeria can cause serious stomach and intestinal illness and flu like symptoms, sometimes weeks after eating. Babies, young children, pregnant women, older people and people with weak immune systems are most at risk.
Check your fridge for the affected packs and do not eat them. You can return the product to any Lidl store and get your money back, even without a receipt. Lidl's customer hotline is 00800 5435 5435.
If you have eaten the product and notice fever, vomiting, diarrhoea or flu like symptoms, see a doctor and mention that you may have eaten food contaminated with Listeria.
