Baby food brand HiPP is recalling some of its baby food jars after samples in Austria, Slovakia and the Czech Republic tested positive for rat poison, officials said Sunday.

"This recall is not due to any product or quality defect on our part. The jars left our HiPP facility in perfect condition," HiPP said in a statement. "The recall is related to a criminal act currently under investigation by the authorities."

喜寶公司表示，出于預防措施，兩國的零售商已將所有該品牌嬰幼兒罐裝食品從貨架上撤下。

HiPP said it is recalling all of its baby food jars sold at SPAR supermarkets — which include SPAR, EUROSPAR, INTERSPAR and Maximarkt stores — in Austria as a precaution. Vendors in Slovakia and the Czech Republic have removed all of the brand's baby jars from sale.

此前，奧地利衛(wèi)生與食品安全局通報稱，身份未明的不法人員向喜寶公司發(fā)送勒索郵件，聲稱已向其部分產品投放鼠藥。經(jīng)調查，在奧地利布爾根蘭州首府艾森施塔特的一家SPAR超市發(fā)現(xiàn)數(shù)罐胡蘿卜土豆泥食品“疑似被鼠藥污染”，其容器被貼上白色貼紙、標上一個紅圈。

喜寶公司已于17日晚宣布召回在奧地利境內所有SPAR超市投放的同一系列產品，并在聲明中警告消費者“食用這類罐裝食品可能帶來生命危險”�？偛课挥诤商m的國際零售集團SPAR公司則表示，作為預防措施，已下架其在奧地利境內超市的所有喜寶品牌產品。

HiPP recalled its entire range of jarred purées sold in Spar supermarkets in Austria, saying consuming them may be potentially "life-threatening".

奧地利警方稱，已召回的產品中未發(fā)現(xiàn)任何被投毒跡象，但召回前可能已有同系列產品被售出。警方敦促公眾暫時不要食用已購買的喜寶嬰兒食品，如發(fā)現(xiàn)可疑跡象應立即報警。奧地利警方表示，消費者可以通過以下特征識別問題產品：底部貼有白色標簽并帶紅色圓圈、瓶蓋已被打開或損壞、缺少安全封口，或有異常氣味。

Burgenland Police in Austria said the suspicious products likely have a white sticker with a red circle on the bottom of the jar. Other warning signs include a damaged or opened lid and an unusual or spoiled smell.

奧地利衛(wèi)生與食品安全局提醒，鼠藥中的有效成分會破壞血凝，家長若發(fā)現(xiàn)孩子食用喜寶產品后出現(xiàn)牙齦出血、流鼻血、不明淤青或便血等癥狀，應立即就醫(yī)。

Rat poison typically includes bromadiolone, an anticoagulant that prevents the blood from clotting, according to the Austrian Agency for Health and Food Safety. Ingesting rat poison could lead to bleeding like bleeding gums and nosebleeds, as well as bruising and blood in the stool.

喜寶公司表示，此次事件僅涉及部分分銷渠道，其他未被納入調查的歐洲國家未受影響。

喜寶公司120多年前創(chuàng)立于德國，向全球銷售有機嬰幼兒食品。
