Food recalls do not happen very regularly, but must be taken seriously when they do.
The Food Standards Gency (FSA) explained: “Sometimes there will be a problem with a food product that means it should not be sold.
“Then it might be ‘withdrawn’ (taken off the shelves) or ‘recalled’ (when customers are asked to return the product).
“Sometimes foods have to be withdrawn or recalled if there is a risk to consumers because the allergy labelling is missing or incorrect or if there is any other food allergy risk. When there is a food allergy risk, the FSA will issue an Allergy Alert.”
Supermarkets Tesco, Asda and Lild have all recently issued a food recall on popular products.
