The Little Bone Broth Company is recalling a range of its bone broth products due to incomplete information on its food process controls.
The products being recalled are the Premium Free Range Chicken Broth, Premium Grass Fed Beef Broth, and Premium Free Range Chicken Green Thai Curry Broth, the Ministry for Primary Industries said on its website.
The affected products, sold in 500ml pouches with a spout, include all batches and dates.
The broths are sold at Fresh Choice, New World, and Pak'nSave supermarkets, and retail outlets across the country.
The products have been pulled from supermarket shelves and have not been exported.
"The concern with these broths is that the company has produced them without having complete information on its food process controls. This means there is incomplete evidence of food safety hazards being correctly managed," New Zealand Food Safety (NZFS) deputy director-general Vincent Arbuckle said.
"Although there have been no reports of related illness, we are taking this precautionary approach because broth produced without the necessary food safety measures could make people sick."
Anyone who has consumed the affected products or is concerned for their health has been advised to contact their health professional or call Healthline on 0800 611 116 for free advice.
NZFS will work alongside The Little Bone Broth Company "to prevent this problem recurring", Arbuckle said.
