“However, it is important to remember that there are only a small number of products with recall notices, and our food safety and retail sector is removing affected products as soon as there is a concern for people’s health.”“Ausveg has had reports of growers over the last 24 hours who are not included in the recall but have experienced reduced orders and drops in sales, adding to the pressures they face during this time of year,” he said.
