Rubber warning prompts Milo bars recall

A recall has been issued for imported Nestlé-brand Milo Dipped Snack Bars as they may contain rubber.

NZ Food Safety acting deputy director-general Jenny Bishop said that the rubber could pose a choking risk.

The batch numbers being recalled are 5316, 5317 and 5318 TD15 with a best-before date of August 2026.

Those can be returned to the place of purchase for a refund or be thrown out.

The bars were manufactured in Australia where they have also been recalled.
