Greece's food safety authority (EFET) has issued a recall for koulouri (sesame bread rings) sold in Greek supermarkets and food shops due to the presence of an undeclared allergen not listed on the packaging. The specific allergen was detected during routine inspections. Tourists with food allergies or intolerances should check any koulouri purchased recently and avoid consuming the affected product. If you have bought koulouri in Crete or elsewhere in Greece, check for recall notices posted in stores or ask staff whether the product is affected. Those with known allergies should exercise caution when purchasing packaged baked goods and always verify ingredient labels. The recall applies nationwide across Greece.
