Crisps, chicken wings and cheese urgently being recalled by supermarkets

UK supermarkets are urgently recalling a number of products due to safety and contamination concerns.

The list includes cheese which may contain dangerous listeria bacteria - which can cause diarrhoea, vomiting and chills - crisps containing milk that is not labelled on the box, and chicken wings which contain gluten.

As reported by the Daily Record, listeria infection in particular can be very serious, especially in elderly people or pregnant woman as it can cause meningitis.

The Food Standards Agency supervises and collates all of the products which shops and supermarkets withdraw due to health and safety reasons.

Here are the full list of products customers are being asked to return to the supermarket for a refund or exchange.

Batch code - 21175
