The New Zealand Food Safety Authority (NZFSA) is warning people not to consume imported milk-based sweets known as White Rabbit Creamy Candies.

This product is sold in retail packs through Asian retailers, supermarkets and dairies.

NZFSA is advising anyone who has the product not to consume it and to return it to the place of purchase or dispose of it.

This product contains sufficiently high levels of melamine which may, in some individuals, cause health problems such as kidney stones.

People with concerns about the consumption of this product should seek medical advice.
