Consumer advice
The recall is about specific toxins called aflatoxins. Aflatoxins are naturally occurring in many food products and are produced by a group of moulds that grow on foods produced in hot and tropical climates. Levels of aflatoxin in the New Zealand diet are usually very low and don't represent a health risk, however, consumption of food products with increased levels of aflatoxin over a continuous period of time can be harmful.
Affected product should not be consumed. If you have consumed any of this product and have any concerns about your health, seek medical advice.
Customers should return the product to their retailer for a full refund.
