for vegans’ after discovering that both contain dairy.
Recalled
Recalled
products include the 100 gram portions of Coles Sugar Free Dark Chocolate and Coles
Sugar Free Dark Chocolate with Almond and Cranberry – no matter the date of production.
Coles has apologised
to consumers for ‘any inconvenience’ the error may have caused.
‘Undeclared
allergen’
The ‘undeclared
allergen’ also puts those with dairy allergies and intolerances at risk.
The company

immediately.

offered a full refund to anyone who has purchased the incorrectly labelled bars.
In-store customers
