Food Standards Australia recalls popular snack mix due to undeclared allergens
- Replies 0
Staying on top of our health is paramount, especially as we get older.
That's why everyone should be aware of any potential risks in the food we consume.
An urgent recall could affect many of our readers, particularly those with allergies.
Nocelle Foods issued a recall for its Nature's Delight Ranger Mix 400 g bag.
The snack mix has been a staple in several homes and is available across IGA, Drakes, and Foodland stores in South and Western Australia.
The snack mix is also available in other smaller independent retailers.
However, an undeclared allergen prompted the recall.
The allergen in question is cashews, a tree nut that commonly causes food allergies.
The specific batch of recalled products had a best-before date of 16/08/2025.
Undeclared allergens could be a serious food safety concern.
It can lead to unexpected allergic reactions, which in some cases can be severe or even life-threatening.
So, if you have this in your pantry, it's time to take action.
Food Standards Australia and New Zealand (FSANZ) stated that cashews were not indicated on the product's packaging.
This oversight could mean that consumers with cashew allergies or intolerance could suffer an allergic reaction.
For those who have purchased the Nature's Delight Ranger Mix 400 g, you may return it to the place of purchase for a full refund.
It's a step that could ensure your safety and should remind food manufacturers about the importance of accurate labelling.
For those who had already consumed the product, FSANZ advised to seek medical advice.
Food recalls may be inconvenient, but they are also a reminder of the vigilance needed when it comes to food safety.
We encourage everyone to check food labels, especially if you have known allergies.
