Austrian company recalled baby meals, strangers claimed to have infected them with rat poison
Austrian company HiPP recalled baby meals with potatoes and carrots after attempted blackmail, with unknown perpetrators claiming to have infected them with rat poison. An infected jar was spotted at a SPAR chain store in Eisenstadt on Saturday, causing urgent warning from authorities. The company warned that consumption may be life-threatening, as rat medicine affects blood clotting. All HiPP products were preventively withdrawn from the SPAR throughout Austria. Parents are invited to return the products and seek medical assistance if symptoms occur.
