Kaisi Australia Holdings Pty Ltd has announced a recall of its Gong Sugar Crisp and Gong Sugar Cookies (Sesame Flavour, 100 g) due to the presence of undeclared peanut. The recall applies to all date markings and is limited to products sold in Asian grocery stores across New South Wales (NSW). This recall is being conducted because the allergen was not declared on the label, posing a serious health risk to individuals with peanut allergies or intolerances.
Recalled Product Details
Reason for Recall
The affected products contain undeclared peanut, a major allergen that must be clearly labeled under food safety standards. Failure to declare this allergen places consumers with peanut allergies at risk of accidental exposure.
Health Risks
Peanut allergy is one of the most common and potentially severe food allergies. Symptoms of a reaction can include skin rashes, hives, swelling of the lips or face, stomach pain, vomiting, and difficulty breathing. In severe cases, ingestion of even a small amount can trigger anaphylaxis, a life-threatening allergic reaction requiring immediate medical intervention. Unlike food intolerances, which cause digestive discomfort, peanut allergy involves the immune system and can be fatal if untreated.
