Prolife Foods Value Pack & Refill Pack Containing Peanuts recalled due to increased aflatoxin
3 weeks ago •source www.mpi.govt.nz
Recall notice
Prolife Foods Limited is recalling specific batches of its Value Pack and Refill Pack products containing peanuts as these products contain levels of aflatoxin above the allowable level. The products are sold in selected supermarkets and retail outlets throughout New Zealand. The products are not sold at
Countdown and Woolworths stores.
The recalled products are sold in clear plastic packaging:
- Value Pack brand and VP brand Nuts and Raisins 400g. Best Before 29 SEP 2024
- Value Pack brand and VP brand Roasted Salted Peanuts 400g. Best Before 08 OCT 2024 and 15 OCT 2024
- Value Pack brand Roasted Salted Peanuts 750g. Best Before 08 OCT 2024
- Refill Pack Roasted Nut Mix 850g. Best Before 05 OCT 2024
- Refill Pack Raw Nut Mix 850g. Best Before 05 OCT 2024
Customers are asked to check the date mark on the product and check at the place of purchase. Affected product should not be consumed. Customers should return the product to their retailer for a full refund.
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.
In case you experience harm from allergens or undeclared ingredients, it is important to report it. It can help to detect & resolve issues and prevent others from being harmed, and it enables better surveillance. If symptoms persist, seek medical care.

Gibson Farms California Shelled Walnuts, Organic Light Halves, and Pieces - recalled due to E.coli
2 days ago •source www.fda.gov
Recall notice
Gibson Farms recalled Organic Light Halves and Pieces shelled walnuts because Gibson Farms received information that they may have the potential to be contaminated with E.Coli 0157:H7. The Organic Light Halves and Pieces shelled walnuts were sold to distributors located in CA and WA. Gibson Farms, Inc.
has voluntarily recalled the product(s) after being notified by the CDC of 12 recorded illnesses allegedly linked to the consumption of organic halves and pieces shelled walnuts.
E. coli O157:H7 causes a diarrheal illness often with bloody stools. Although most healthy adults can recover completely within a week, some people can develop a form of kidney failure called Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS). HUS is most likely to occur in young children and the elderly. The condition can lead to serious kidney damage and even death.
Gibsons Farms Organic Light Halves and Pieces shelled walnuts were sold in bulk boxes in Net Wt. 25 lbs quantities and can be identified by lot 3325-043 & 3341-501 with expiration dates 5/21/25 & 6/7/25.
Gibson Farms requests consignees to hold and discontinue selling their existing stock of lot 3325-043 and lot 3341-501 and return any remaining inventory of the recalled products to our local warehouse Gibson Farms 1190 Buena Vista Rd Hollister Ca 95023. If you have distributed or sold this product to other retailers, please notify your clients as to the status of this product. Any retailers that have received the recalled walnuts are recommended to do the following:
-Retailers that received recalled products and do not clean and sanitize bulk bins between refilling them, should discard the contents of the bin and clean and sanitize it before refilling.
-Retailers that received recalled product from a distributor but do not know the brand or lot code information, you should hold product, sanitize your bins, and contact your supplier.
In case you are experiencing E. coli symptoms such as watery diarrhea (often bloody), vomiting; stomach cramps; and mild fever, it is important to report it. It can help to detect & resolve outbreaks early and prevent others from being harmed, and it enables better surveillance. If symptoms persist, seek medical care.
