If you recently purchased Gotzinger Smallgoods' 400g Wood Smoked Kabana product, you might want to check the use-by date and packaging carefully.

The affected products were sold at Woolworths stores, IGA, and Drakes in Queensland, with some potentially available in northern NSW Woolworths stores as well.



The recall has been issued by the Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) due to the presence of milk in the cheese kransky, which could be risky for those with allergies or intolerances to this allergen. So, if you have a milk allergy or intolerance, it's best to steer clear of this product.

To stay safe, make sure to check the usage date on the packaging, which is May 12, 2023. And if you happen to have one of the incorrectly packaged items, return it to the place of purchase for a full refund.
