Recall Details
The presence of cereulide (toxin) makes this product unsafe to consume.
Cereulide is a toxin produced by some strains of Bacillus cereus. Cereulide is highly heat stable meaning it is unlikely to be deactivated or destroyed by cooking, or when making the infant milk according to NHS guidelines. If consumed it can lead to rapid onset of symptoms.
Symptoms caused by this toxin include nausea, vomiting and abdominal cramps.
