19-day-old chicken on store shelves

It was only last spring that the Norhrälsinge environmental office visited the Ica store and then discovered a series of deficiencies. At the time, some 20 different products for sale had passed their best before date, without any information being given to the customers about this.

For example, the best before date on a chicken wrap had passed by 19 days and on hot dogs by nine days, something that Hudiksvall’s Newspaper previously reported on.

“Unfit as human food”

The store was alerted to this and asked to immediately ensure that the food products being sold were not harmful to health or unfit for human consumption, writes Norhrälsinge environmental office in the order which News24 took part in.

The environmental office summarized the injunction by writing that the ICA store should stop selling expired food immediately.

    Private milk in the dairy fridge

    The staff had also placed “a large amount of lactose-free red milk” on a truck in the dairy cooler, according to the environmental office. The milk had passed the best before date over a year before but according to the staff the milk was only used privately.
