Product recall issued for Morrisons popcorn due to milk allergy risk

A product recall has been issued for several bags of popcorn sold at Morrisons supermarkets.

Thomas Tucker ltd is recalling the popcorn across the UK, with Food Standards Scotland (FSS), saying shoppers should return them if they have milk allergies.

Several types of popcorn include milk which isn't mentioned on the label.

The batches have "use by" dates of between 23 August and 19 February, 2020.

FSS said: "Morrisons popcorn products because they may contain milk which is not mentioned on the label. This means the products are a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy or intolerance to milk or milk constituents.
