Popular vegan milk brand Oatly is recalling one of its products due to fears it might contain metal pieces.
The oat-based plant milk comes in several varieties, and it's the blue packaged 'whole milk' product that's affected.
The milk substitute is only sold at Tesco, but the possible presence of metal make the product “unsafe to drink and presents a safety risk” according to the Food Standards Agency.
The recall affects Oatly Oat Drink Whole with a pack size of one litre, best before 29 April 2019.
Asda is selling a Marmite-flavoured Easter egg - will you be giving it a try?
The FSA’s advice to anyone who finds they have the affected product in their possession, is to “return it to the store” and “do not drink it”.
If you have a bottle you can take it back for a full refund.
Oatly said in a statement, “As a precaution we’re doing a recall of an isolated batch of Oatly chilled Oat Drink whole that might contain metal pieces from a broken machine part.
“The risk is very small but we always put safety first and want to make sure we eliminate any risk.
“No further stock was impacted on the affected production line, or any of our other products.”
