The NSW Food Authority advises:

Product information:  

Hoyts Food Manufacturing Pty Ltd is conducting a recall of Poppy Seeds (100g sachet packet and 240g PET jar). The products have been available for sale at Coles & Woolworths nationally.

Batch Codes: 28622, 29322, 29822 & 29922

Problem: The recall is due to the potential presence of a chemical (thebaine) due to unsafe poppy seeds entering the food supply.

Food safety hazard: Food products containing thebaine may cause illness if consumed. Severe poisoning soon after ingestion has occurred in some people who have consumed large amounts of poppy seeds.

Country of origin: Australia

What to do​: Consumers should not eat these products and should return to the place of purchase for a full refund and safe disposal. Any consumers concerned about their health should seek medical advice.
