Bottles of water sold in Spar and Londis recalled due to unsafe levels of arsenic

Bottles of water sold in Spar and Londis have been recalled due to unsafe levels of arsenic.

The recall was issued by the Food Safety Authority of Ireland.

The effected products are SPAR Water Still Sport 750ml and Londis Water Still 1 litre with batch code 177.

Retailers have been asked to remove the products from sale, while customers have been advised to not drink the water.

Despite the warning, the FSAI have said there is no immediate or on-going risk.

The FSAI says: "As a precautionary measure, BWG Foods is withdrawing a batch of SPAR Water Still Sport- 750ml and Londis Water Still - 1 litre due to the presence of arsenic above normal levels.

"Consumption of the product does not cause any immediate or on-going risk."
