The Food Standards Agency issues recalls for a variety of reasons
Shoppers are being warned to check their cupboards, fridges and freezers after several food products were recalled from various supermarkets.
The Food Standards Agency (FSA) issues recalls for a variety of reasons, including when products contain allergens that are not disclosed on the packaging or if plastic is detected in the item.
When a product is recalled, for any reason, the FSA shares details on what you should do if you have bought the item, as well as detailed information on why the item has been pulled from sale.
