But meatballs from the tainted batch were also sent to Slovakia, Ireland, Hungary, France, Portugal, the Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, Italy, Greece, Cyprus and the U.K.

An IKEA spokeswoman said all meatballs from that batch were immediately removed from shelves. She also said IKEA had tested its food products two weeks ago and found no traces of horsemeat.
