The Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) has confirmed the recall of a batch of Hogan's Farm Turkey Burgers due to the possible presence of salmonella.
The implicated batch has a use by date of July 26, 2025, and although this date has passed, the FSAI noted that the product is suitable for home freezing.
As a result, the authority is advising consumers to check their freezers for the affected batch and not to eat the burgers.
The burgers are in a 400g pack size and carry the approval number: IE 827 EC
According to the FSAI, people infected with salmonella typically develop symptoms between 12 and 36 hours after infection, but this can range between 6 and 72 hours.
The most common symptom is diarrhoea, which can sometimes be bloody.
Other symptoms may include fever, headache and abdominal cramps. The illness usually lasts 4 to 7 days.
Diarrhoea can occasionally be severe enough to require hospital admission.
The elderly, infants, and those with impaired immune systems are more likely to have a severe illness.
The FSAI said that recall notices will also be displayed at point-of-sale.
