Bestore Mini Bread Recall Due to Undeclared Milk Allergen Alert

Credit: Singapore Food Agency

The Singapore Food Agency (SFA) has issued a recall for Bestore RTE Mini Bread Prepacked (330g) due to the detection of undeclared milk on its packaging label. The importer, Green Olive Group Pte Ltd, has been instructed to recall the affected product, with the process currently ongoing.

This recall highlights the critical importance of accurate labeling, especially for allergens. Milk, while safe for the general population, can trigger severe allergic reactions in individuals sensitive to it. Singapore’s Food Regulations mandate that all known allergens must be clearly declared on packaging labels to safeguard consumers with food allergies.

Potential Risks

The consumption of milk or milk-derived products by individuals who are intolerant or allergic can lead to serious health complications. Symptoms may include rashes, swelling, difficulty breathing, or, in extreme cases, anaphylaxis.

For most consumers, milk does not present a safety issue. However, those with milk allergies or intolerances are advised not to consume the implicated product. Consumers who have already consumed the product and are experiencing symptoms should seek medical attention immediately.

Advice for Consumers

Consumers who have purchased the affected Bestore RTE Mini Bread are encouraged to check the product label. If they have allergies or sensitivities to milk, they should dispose of the product or return it to the retailer for further guidance.

For further inquiries, consumers may contact the store where the product was purchased.

This recall serves as a reminder to the food industry of the importance of stringent quality control measures in labeling, ensuring that consumers can make informed decisions about the food products they purchase and consume.
