Some of the UK’s biggest supermarkets have issued an urgent warning to customers about ice cream, chocolate and meat being recalled for safety reasons.
Tesco, Asda, Marks and Spencer, Morrisons and Waitrose have all released notices after the Food Standards Agency (FSA) raised a warning.
The fresh warning details what items are being recalled and why.
Many of the products contain wheat or soya that are not listed on the packaging, while some other items are being recalled as they have not been labelled correctly or may contain plastic particles.
Shoppers who have purchased any of these items can return them to the supermarket in exchange for a full refund, either with or without a receipt.
Full details of the affected products have been listed on the FSA website, including their picture, pack size, used by date and in some cases batch code.
Chocolate bars
Lindt & Sprüngli (UK) Ltd is recalling Lindt LINDOR Salted Caramel Milk Chocolate 38g Bars because a small number of packs contain wheat (gluten) which is not mentioned on the label.
The FSA said this means the product is a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy or intolerance to wheat or gluten.
Due to a packaging error, some packs contain Lindt HELLO Strawberry Cheesecake Bar.
The product is sold through retailers including Tesco, Ocado and Waitrose.
