Tesco recall

Tesco is recalling one of its cereals over fears the product is a “possible health risk”.

The supermarket giant has recalled its Tesco Free From Bran Flakes, as some packs may contain amounts of another cereal which contains allergy risks not mentioned on the label.

Some Chocolate Pillows cereal may be in boxes of the Bran Flakes. The pillows contain milk and hazelnuts, which are not listed on the Bran Flakes label.

As a result, the cereal may be a health risk to anyone with an allergy or intolerance to milk, milk constituents or hazelnuts.

 

The affected products are the 300g boxes of Tesco Free From Bran Flakes with a best before date of May 26, 2024.

A spokesman for the Food Standards Agency said: “Tesco is recalling the above product from customers and has been advised to contact the relevant allergy support organisations, which will tell their members about the recall.

“The company has also issued a recall notice to its customers. These notices explain to customers why the product is being recalled and tell them what to do if they have bought the product.

“If you have bought the above product and have an allergy or intolerance to milk or milk constituents and/or an allergy to hazelnut (nuts) do not eat it.

“Instead, return it to a Tesco store for a full refund, no receipt is required.

“For further details please contact Tesco customer services on 0800 505 555.”

Lidl recall

Lidl has issued a recall of one of its products as it may be a “health risk” to some customers.

The supermarket chain has recalled its Deluxe Ecuadorian Single Origin Easter Egg as it may contain milk which is not mentioned on the label.

As a result, the product is a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy or intolerance to milk or milk constituents.

Those with an allergy who have not yet eaten the easter egg are being warned not to.

The recall affects all batch codes of the egg, with a pack size of 180g.

 

 A spokesman for the Food Standards Agency (FSA) said: “Lidl GB is recalling the above product from customers and has contacted the relevant allergy support organisations, which will tell their members about the recall.

“The company has also issued a point-of-sale notice to its customers. These notices explain to customers why the product is being recalled and tell them what to do if they have bought the product.

“If you have bought the above product and have an allergy or intolerance to milk or milk constituents, do not eat it.

“Instead return it to the store from where it was purchased for a full refund. For more information, please contact customer.services@lidl.co.uk.”

Birds Eye recall

Birds Eye has issued a recall of its Aunt Bessie’s Crispy Whole Onion Rings as some packs may contain an incorrect product which contains both egg and milk.

The manufacturing error means that the product is a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy or intolerance to egg and or milk or milk constituents.

The affected packs are 375g, have a batch code of L3037 and a best before date of August 2024.

 

A spokesman for the Food Standards Agency said: “If you have bought the above product and have an allergy or intolerance to egg and/or milk or milk constituents do not eat it.

“Instead, cut the packaging which shows the batch code and post this and your contact details to the address as shown on the attached notice for a full refund.
