Further batches of SMA baby formula pulled from shelves over toxin risk

This is the second recall of the Nestlé products in just over a week, and comes due to the potential presence of a toxin called cereulide. Cereulide is produced by some strains of the bacterium, bacillus cereus, which can cause food poisoning. The FSAI is once again advising parents, guardians and caregivers to refrain from using the recalled products, as the cereulide is "extremely heat resistant" and consumption of the toxin can lead to "nausea and severe vomiting".
