Consumer Commission urges peanut butter manufacturers to test products
Updated | By Bulletin
The National Consumer Commission is calling on all manufacturers of peanut butter to start testing their products to determine whether their products meet the acceptable levels of aflatoxin.

Earlier this month, Pick n Pay recalled their No-Name and Eden All-Natural peanut butter from its stores for having elevated levels of aflatoxin, which may cause harm to humans.
Woolworths also recalled their peanut butter dairy product recently.

Acting National Consumer Commissioner Thezi Mabuza says they are concerned by the high rate of recalls.
"We believe that this assessment will help the commission to understand the magnitude of the problem at hand. If, during the testing of their products, suppliers discover that their products are not safe. We urge them to follow the NCC's product report protocol. Suppliers are required to go to our website for more information."
