Tesco and Waitrose issue 'do not eat' warning over food items as products recalled - see full list
Here are full details of the products that have been recalled by both supermarkets due to health fears
by Sonia Sharma · ChronicleLiveTesco and Waitrose have issued a warning over some products that may pose a health risk to shoppers.
The supermarkets have recalled the food items, asking customers not to eat them but return them to their nearest store for a refund. The warning has also been shared by the Food Standards Agency.
Tesco's warning is for Tesco Finest 6 All Butter Pastry Mince Pies because they may contain small pieces of dried glue from packaging. The supermarket said: "We’re recalling specific date codes of Tesco Finest 6 All Butter Pastry Mince Pies (6-pack), due to the possible presence of small pieces of dry glue from the packaging.
"No other Tesco products are affected by this issue. If you’ve bought an affected product, please don’t eat it. Instead, return it to a Tesco store for a refund. No receipt is required."
Meanwhile, Waitrose is recalling Waitrose Easy to Cook Scottish Salmon En Croute with Cheese and Chive Sauce and Waitrose Easy to Cook Salmon and Sweet Potato Curry because they contain milk, mustard, soya and wheat (gluten), which are not mentioned on the label. This means the products are a possible health risk for anyone with coeliac disease, and/or an allergy or intolerance to milk, mustard, soya and wheat or gluten.
Waitrose's warning notice said: "Do not consume. Package up item. Return the product to your local Waitrose & Partners branch for a refund. We apologise that it has been necessary to recall this product and for the inconvenience caused."
