Food Recall: Kinder Surprise Maxi Eggs, Kinder Mini Eggs Hazelnut, Kinder Happy Moments Ballotin and Kinder Maxi Mix with plush toy

James from Waikanae

The Kinder recall is getting very serious.

Ferrero Australia Pty Ltd is expanding their recall to include all batches and sizes of specific Kinder brand chocolates due to the possible presence of Salmonella. Affected products should not be consumed. Toys within the affected products should be discarded as they may be in contact with the affected chocolate. There have been cases of illnesses reportedly linked to Kinder Surprise chocolate eggs, manufactured by Ferrero International S.A. in Belgium. There have been no confirmed cases in New Zealand, however if you have consumed any of this product and have any concerns about your health, seek medical advice.

Note:

This is an extension of recall notices published on 7 and 8 April 2022 to include additional products, multiple batches and varieties. Additional retail outlets have also been included.
Kinder Surprise Eggs (20g, all variations) imported by Ferrero Australia Pty Ltd, sold in New Zealand are not affected by this recall.
Other product, packaging and design variations under the Kinder brand sold by Countdown, FreshChoice, SuperValue, Pak'n Save, New World and Four Square supermarkets, Kmart and The Warehouse stores are not affected by this recall.

OCTOBER'S WEATHER IN KĀPITI

Murray from Paraparaumu

This third spring month in Kāpiti was milder and sunnier than average, and for three weeks we also seemed to be heading for a record dry one, but rain here and over most of the country on the last week changed that.

We ended up with 110mm of rain (airport), but this was only 12mm above the historic average for this month that is frequently our wettest. Despite the rain, we had the equivalent of 15.5 sunny days, slightly above average.

Our daily average maximum temperature was 17.8, almost 0.4C above average and 0.7C above last year, and our overall mean temperature was 14.2C, 1.3C above last year, and the warmest in central New Zealand.

November could average around 20C, as it often does, so we can look forward to the possibility of enjoying our first summer month.

Its sap is toxic and can cause temporary blindness

A newly discovered infestation at Mitimiti, in the Far North, is the biggest to date
