Government warns on contaminated baby food
AUSTRALIA'S food safety regulator has issued a warning about a Norwegian baby food product that may be contaminated with deadly bacteria.
Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) has advised that children should not consume Hipp's baby food after a warning was issued by the Norwegian Food Safety Authority (NFSA).
The NFSA's website says there are suspicions that Hipp's fruit puree with apricot and banana may contain Clostridium botulinum following an outbreak of illness in Denmark.
"This product is not exported to Australia, but Food Standards Australia New Zealand warns parents, who may have bought this product overseas for personal use, to ensure their child does not consume it," FSANZ said in a statement.
Clostridium botulinum can cause dangerous food poisoning, even in small doses.
