Nestlé, Danone, and Lactalis were forced to recall infant formula batches worldwide amid concerns of toxic cereulide contamination. Three of the world’s largest dairy companies, Nestlé, Danone, and Lactalis, have recalled large batches of infant formula after detecting cereulide contamination – a toxin that can cause vomiting, diarrhoea, and abdominal cramps. The contamination has been traced to a single Chinese supplier of ARA (arachidonic acid) oil, a critical ingredient in premium infant formulas. Lactalis was the latest company to announce the recall of six lots of its Picot infant formula brand, distributed across 18 countries. Affected batches have been on sale since January 2025 with expiration dates up to March 2027. “Upon receiving this alert, and in parallel with the analyses requested from the supplier of the ingredient concerned, LNS (Lactalis Nutrition Santé) immediately initiated testing through an accredited independent laboratory to assess the potentially affected products”, the Lactalis said in a statement. The company added that it fully understands that this information may cause concern among parents of young children and that, at this stage, no complaints or reports related to the consumption of these products have been communicated by the French authorities.
