A Hong Kong baby food producer has voluntarily recalled several products from store shelves as a precaution after parents and online users raised concerns that they might contain rice weevils.
Baby Basic on Wednesday said the recall covered “instant baby congee – konbu salmon”, with an expiry date of June 22, 2027, and three varieties of its “instant rice-shaped pasta”: salmon and cream, tomato and chicken, and vegetable and beef.
It also suspended production of all three pasta varieties.
The company, which was founded in 2015, said refunds were available to customers who bought the affected products, and consumers could contact its hotline on 3563 6236 or WhatsApp on 6994 4069.
The recall was initiated after the company received a report involving the vegetable and beef flavour of the instant rice-shaped pasta, which was suspected of containing the weevils.
Baby Basic stressed that the recall was a precautionary measure intended to reassure parents, adding that government food-safety tests had not confirmed any health risks.
