National Consumer Commission Issues Urgent Recall for Contaminated Peanut Butter Brands

The National Consumer Commission (NCC) calls to attention all persons who have these peanut
butter brands:

Dischem’s Lifestyle 400 grams Smooth and Crunchy,
Dischem’s Lifestyle 800 grams Smooth and Crunchy,
Wazoogles Superfoods all sizes starting from 32g to 20 KG,
Pick n’ Pay’s No Name 1KG smooth and
Eden All Natural; to immediately stop consuming these products and return them to the
point of purchase for a full refund with or without proof of purchase.

Pick n Pay’s No Name, Eden All Natural, and Dischem’s Lifestyle brands were distributed
nationally, while Wazoogles Superfoods products were distributed mainly in the Western Cape.

The manufacturer, House of Natural Butters (Pty) Ltd, informed the Commission that all these
brands were found to have higher than legally acceptable levels of Aflatoxin as set out under
R1145 Regulation Governing Tolerance of FungusProduced Toxins in Foodstuffs. Failing to meet
the quality standards rendered Lifestyle peanut butter, the No Name 1kg Pick n’ Pay, Wazoogles
Superfoods, and Eden All Natural peanut butter unsafe for human consumption.
