Italy's Ministry of Health issued a recall notice, dated June 28, 2026, for a batch of De Cecco Red Pesto (200g jar), produced by Delizie di Riviera on behalf of F.lli De Cecco di Filippo Fara San Martino SpA at the Ceparana (La Spezia) facility. The recall reason is an undeclared nuts allergen on the Dutch- and Portuguese-language (Brazil) adhesive labels applied to jars intended for those export markets.
Notably, the product is intended solely for the Netherlands and Brazil markets, and it's unclear why the notice was also published in Italy — one possibility is that the product still reaches Italian consumers through e-commerce or parallel-market channels.
