Cadbury recalls old-school favourite chocolate

Cadbury has issued a recall of its highly sought-after Caramilk blocks in Australia.

Just weeks after the chocolate bar's re-release, Australian chocoholics are being warned that the product is being recalled for safety reasons.

Yesterday, Cadbury released a statement explaining that the chocolate blocks with best before dates 17/01/2019 and 21/01/2019 were "found to contain small, flexible pieces of food grade plastic as a result of a machinery fault during the manufacturing process".

Cadbury has urged customers to return the product to ensure their safety.

However, some people don’t want to let go of their Caramilk bars because of how in demand they are.

"I have 5 blocks with the date 17/01/19 on them you no what id rather choke on the god dam plastic then give it back," Trish Adams commented.

Caramilk hasn’t been available in Australian stores since the mid-1990s and, as with all favourite product resurrections, customers were delighted to be able to purchase this popular chocolate bar again.

The chocolate bars are so popular that one person from Victoria is selling seven blocks for a whopping $150 online.

If you were lucky enough to purchase a Caramilk bar that is within the recall category, you can return the bar to the place of purchase, and hopefully they will have more in stock to replace it.
