Nationwide Alfalfa Sprouts Recall Over Salmonella Risk
Health authorities are advising South Australians not to consume Aussie Sprouts Alfalfa Sprouts made by Parilla Fresh. The national recall was issued due to suspected Salmonella contamination.
Background of the Recall
This action follows a collaborative investigation by health and food regulators into a rise in an unusual strain of Salmonella infection. Parilla Fresh voluntarily initiated the recall while tests and inquiries continue.

Other alfalfa sprout brands produced by Parilla Fresh have been withdrawn in other states. In South Australia, only the Aussie Sprouts brand is affected. The impacted 125g packs were sold in several supermarkets, including Coles and Woolworths, with use-by dates up to and including 20 November 2025.
Public Advisory
