TWO more products have been withdrawn from sale in Australia after being found to be contaminated with the industrial chemical melamine.
"Australian importers and wholesalers have begun withdrawing these products from sale," Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FANZ) spokeswoman Lydia Buchtmann said.
The products should not be consumed and should be disposed of safely out of the reach of children pets, Ms Buchtmann said.
Today's action follows the withdrawal from sale of four other imported products found to contain melamine.
Australian authorities have so far withdrawn White Rabbit milk-based lollies, Cadbury chocolate eclairs made in China, Lotte Koala Biscuits and Kirin milk tea.
Concerns have also been raised about melamine contamination of fruit and vegetables grown in China and exported to Australia.
Chinese vegetable products imported into Australia include fresh garlic and peas, frozen mixed vegetables, canned mushrooms and tomato paste.
Products contaminated with melamine, which is normally used in plastic products, have killed at least four children and sickened 53,000 in mainland China.
