The NSW Food Authority has issued a recall notice of Deep-brand SPROUTED MOONG 454g and SPROUTED MAT 454g sold in Indian grocery stores across New South Wales, due to potential Salmonella contamination.
South Pacific Foods Distributors Pty Ltd has advised consumers not to eat the products and to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.
The affected date markings are:
• Deep SPROUTED MOONG — Best before: 17/04/26
• Deep SPROUTED MAT — Best before: 18/04/26
Food Standards Australia New Zealand says Salmonella can cause illness if consumed. Anyone concerned about their health should seek medical advice.
For product enquiries, contact South Pacific Foods Distributors Pty Ltd at karan@southpacificfoods.com.au.
The NSW action follows a separate U.S. investigation into Salmonella infections linked to Deep-brand frozen sprouted beans; authorities there have warned consumers not to eat the recalled items. There is no suggestion the Australian recall is connected to any illnesses in NSW at this time.
More recall details are available from the NSW Food Authority and FSANZ.
