Woolies recalls ice creams, sorbets
Updated | By ECR Newswatch
Woolworths is recalling 12 of its ice-cream and sorbet products as a precautionary measure - saying the peanut allergen labelling on the packaging may be inconsistent.
The retail giant says all affected products have been removed from their store shelves nationally to as to not potentially put customers at risk.
Lemon Sorbet, Hazelnut Dairy Ice Cream, Mini Almond Solos and Italian kisses are some of the items which have been recalled.
Woolworths says the labelling which informs customers that the product was made in a factory which uses peanuts - was not included on some of the ice creams and sorbets.
The retailer says the labels indicate products that could potentially contain food allergens, not as ingredients, but as a result of unavoidable cross-contact during production.
Customers have been urged to return any of the products without the peanut allergen labelling for a full refund.
