Tropical Brazil recalls Acai with Guarana products on Salmonella fears

A popular acai product sold at eateries and bars across NSW has been recalled over fears of Salmonella contamination.

Tropical Brazil issued a recall for its Acai with Guarana products this week, with the NSW Food Authority warning the microbial contamination poses health risks to consumers.

“Food products contaminated with Salmonella may cause illness if consumed,” the authority warns.

“Consumers should not eat this product. Consumers should return the products to the place of purchase for a full refund.

“Any consumers concerned about their health should seek medical advice.”

Salmonella can be deadly, though most cases are mild.

The dangerous products are marked as Lot 302, with a best before date of August 1, 2026.
