Nestle Singapore, the importer of the affected product — Gerber's arrowroot biscuits — has been directed to recall the implicated product, the agency said in a news release on Tuesday (Jan 27).
Three batches of the USA-made product are being recalled.

SFA said that foods known to be unsafe for consumption should not be sold, adding that consumers who have purchased the implicated products are advised not to feed it to their children.
Those whose children have consumed the implicated products and have concerns about their children's health should seek medical advice, added the agency.
Consumers may contact their point of purchase for enquiries.
Earlier this month, Nestle was ordered to stop sales of five batches of its infant formula and follow-on formula over concerns of the potential presence of cereulide toxin.
On Jan 17, an additional batch of its infant formula was also recalled over the same concern.
