After undergoing in-house testing, these products were identified to contain elevated levels of Aflatoxin, which may pose potential health risks. Aflatoxin is a naturally occurring mycotoxin, but the levels detected were higher than the regulatory threshold.
‘The health and safety of our customers is our priority. Customers who might have bought these peanut butter products are urged to return them to Pick n Pay for a full refund if any product has an expiry date between now and July 2025.
‘If any customer has concerns, they are quite welcome to return these products whether or not they fall within this expiry date, or whether products have been opened or not,’ the statement read.
