Tesco, Costco, Iceland, McDonald's and other major supermarket brands issue urgent product recalls

Some of the UK's major supermarkets and brands have been forced to issue product recalls in the past week, due to fears of salmonella and even plastic in food.

Tesco, Iceland and big brands including Britvic have all issued product recalls.

People who have bought products from McDonald's and Costco should also be aware of the alerts.

Here are all the recalls the Food Standards Agency (FSA) has issued in the past week, from June 26 to July 3.

The product was sold as multipacks (24 bottles) in Tesco and Costco, and as single bottles in McDonald’s, between 22 and 28 June.
