Auckland City Mission is working to contact up to 400 individuals who may have received food parcels containing dangerous candies filled with methamphetamine.
The sweets, disguised as harmless candy, contained methamphetamine doses up to 300 times the usual intake and could have lethal consequences.
Authorities suspect these dangerous candies represent a cross-border smuggling method, with their high street value indicating the donation was likely accidental.
City Missioner Helen Robinson emphasized the importance of only accepting commercially produced food in sealed packaging to prevent incidents like this.
