A number of chilled and frozen seafood products are being recalled by leading supermarkets over fears of possible salmonella contamination.
The Food Standards Agency says several seafood items including prawns, mussels and seafood bites, should be returned to the shop where they were bought them, reports Birmingham Live.
Salmonella is one of the types of bacteria linked to food poisoning with symptoms usually including fever, diarrhoea and abdominal cramps.
The FSA said: "If you have bought any of the above products do not eat them.
"Instead, return them to the store from where they were bought for a full refund."
Retailers including Asda, Sainsbury's, Waitrose and Co-op are recalling the specific products listed below.
Be sure to check your fridges and freezers for any of these.
