Urgent recall shocks loyal customers of a trusted dairy-free brand.
What should have been a safe choice for allergy sufferers turned into a frightening discovery.
Now, furious shoppers are demanding answers.
Cocobella, a popular Australian brand known for its vegan-friendly coconut yoghurt, urgently recalled several 110g pouches after detecting undeclared milk.
The company confirmed that Strawberry Coconut Yoghurt and Banana Coconut Yoghurt pouches with a use-by date of 12 September 2025 were affected, along with Banana and Mango Coconut Yoghurt pouches labelled 13 September 2025.
‘They determined that there was milk contamination and they are now working with regulators to recall those products,’ a spokesman said.
While Cocobella reassured shoppers that the affected volume was small, anyone with dairy allergies or intolerances was told not to consume the products.
Despite assurances that all other Cocobella items remained safe, customers expressed shock and anger online.
‘I wondered why I got so sick after eating these,’ one person wrote.
‘This is actually really scary – imagine if you have a serve allergy of dairy,’ another added.
Cocobella advised customers to return recalled yoghurts to their point of purchase for a full refund.
‘Cocobella is working closely with Dairy Food Safety Victoria and FSANZ to conduct this recall. All relevant retailers have been notified,’ the statement read.
Food recalls can be unsettling, especially when they involve products people rely on to feel safe.
The Cocobella incident isn’t the only recent case where trusted items were unexpectedly pulled from shelves.
Here’s another example that highlights just how quickly a popular grocery staple can become a health concern.
