Italy or Germany???
Hello, your article states that Kinder Chocolate was originally invented for the italian market in 1968. The german article states that Kinder Chocolate came to the german market in 1967??? Also the name Kinder means Children in german and is not a used word in Italy. And, the original face is that of a german. Or is there a proof of a differently named and printed original package?

 * I found an obviously inofficial article that says that Ferrero came to Germany, Frankfurt and developed the series "Kinder" there ten years after foundation in Italy.

Kinder Chocolate maxi and Kinder Riegel are the same product
Kinder Chocolate maxi and Kinder Riegel are the same product, so this should be mentioned. Inside Germany it's Kinder Rigel and outside Kinder Chocolate maxi. Also the product description should consider this. --Angerdan (talk) 12:07, 17 January 2021 (UTC)

Kinder (Salmonella)
Ferrero initially recalled "Kinder Surprise" chocolate eggs in Britain and Ireland, saying it was for precautionary reasons. The Kinder eggs suspected of containing salmonella were all made in Belgium and are dated between 11 July 2022 and 7 October 2022. The Kinder Surprise batches involved are 20 gram packs and three x 20 gram packs.

The ECDC said the outbreak, which is due to the single-phase Salmonella Typhimurium and is constantly accelerating, affects seven EU countries and Britain, stressing that the epidemic has been characterized by "an unusually high percentage of hospitalized children". Some have severe clinical symptoms, including bloody diarrhea.

As of April 5, 134 cases had been identified. All the cases that have been recorded so far are under 18 years old, with the overwhelming 60% concerning children under 5 years old and most of them are girls. At least nine patients associated with the epidemic have been hospitalized, but no deaths have been reported. The first case was reported in Britain on January 7.

In addition to the UK, cases have been reported in France, Ireland, Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Sweden and Norway, and Italy is also checking to see if any of its analytical results are linked to the single-phase Salmonella Typhimurium epidemic. Ferrero's products were also recalled by Canada, according to the recall announcement issued by the Canadian Food Inspection Service, which states that no one in the country has been infected in relation to the recalled products.

Swiss Nestle said it had not recalled any products from the market, while Lindt & Sprunegli said it was not affected by the current health crisis.

Ferrero, which makes Kinder chocolates, said it had taken the "precautionary decision" to voluntarily extend recalls to these products in the United Kingdom and Ireland between 20 April 2022 and 21 August 2022 and noted that none of its products Kinder that went on sale was not found to be positive for salmonella, but that it takes the issue "extremely seriously."

They added that they knew Easter was approaching, which usually sees a boost in sales for Kinder Surprise eggs.

EFET announced the recall of Kinder products On Wednesday (6/4) and EFET announced that Kinder products are being recalled from the market and called on the citizens not to consume if they have them in their possession.

EFET was informed by the Early Warning System for Food and Feed (RASFF), regarding the preventive recall of specific batches of Kinder Schokobons products of 46 gr & 125 gr and Kinder Surprise maxi of 100 gr, due to the possible presence of salmonella.

Specifically, these are the products with batch numbers listed in the table below: 2A02:1388:4163:B84E:30C7:1BE6:22E5:9166 (talk) 14:57, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
