Knorr, the food and beverage brand, is recalling its brown onion gravy sachets, after manufacturers discovered that some packets may contain traces of cow’s milk and soy – two allergenic food products that are not listed as ingredients on the gravy’s packaging.
“Unilever said it recently discovered that a small batch of Knorr brown onion gravy packets mistakenly contain the ingredients of the Knorr professional brown sauce base,” reports IOL.
“As a result, the affected stock contains cow’s milk and soy as allergens, which are not declared on the list of ingredients in the Knorr brown onion gravy packaging,” reads the statement, issued by Uniliver.
“Knorr requests that consumers who have purchased any packets of the Knorr brown onion gravy marked BB 11 DEC 2025 KM 4163 E14A or BB 12 DEC 2025 KM 4164 E14A do not consume the products and return the product to the nearest retailer for a refund or notify Unilever SA via our Consumer Careline on 0860 331 441 or Consumer Engagement Centre WhatsApp line on +27 67 429 7040,” Unilever’s nutrition lead in Southern Africa, Janine Van Rooyen, said.
In its statement, the brand went on to emphasise its commitment to the health and well-being of its consumers, adding that when the recent findings came to its attention, it immediately seized production and made the necessary adjustments to rectify the situation.
“We are committed to ensuring the highest quality and safety standards for our products that South Africans love and trust,” said Van Rooyen.
