A widely purchased frozen food product from IKEA outlets across Australia has been withdrawn from sale because it may contain bits of black rubber.

Food Standards Australia has issued a warning that consuming the SLAGVERK breaded wheat-based pieces could lead to health issues.

The product in question was available in 500g packages, marked with a best before date of 19-08-2025 and carries the IKEA product number 205.588.94

The $12 product has been available for sale in IKEA stores in NSW, the ACT, Queensland, Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia.

Food Standards Australia said the product should be returned to the place of purchase.

“Consumers should not eat this product,” the watchdog said.

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