Pioneer Foods is recalling some of its LiquiFruit products like LiquiFruit 100% apple juice products after elevated levels of a natural toxic substance were found in their apple concentrate supplied to Pioneer Foods.
This comes shortly after the recall of more than 37,000
cases of Appletiser following the detection of Patulin. The company said that a
limited quantity of apple juice concentrate contained elevated levels of Patulin
Patulin is a mycotoxin a toxic fungal product
produced by a variety of moulds, and is often found in rotting apples and apple
products and can cause gastrointestinal distress.
The food company said that it had not received any
complaints from consumers but has decided to accelerate further testing to be certain
of the extent of the potential impact. It also urged consumers who have the
affected products with the specific batch or date coding to return them for a
full refund.
