Supermarkets issue ‘do not eat’ warning for £1 school lunchtime favourite
A ‘do not eat’ warning has been issued for a £1 lunchbox staple a week.
Sainsbury’s and Asda are among the supermarkets, which are recalling packs of McGhee’s Family Bakers 6 Scottish Brown Rolls.
Due to an error, several packs have been contaminated with white rolls, which contain soya.
This means the product could be a major health risk for anyone with an allergy to the bean.
Food Standards Scotland (FSS) also alerted people of the recall last week.
A statement said: ‘McGhee’s Family Bakers are recalling packs of 6 Scottish Brown Rolls.
‘Due to a packaging error, several packs include white rolls which contain soya.
‘This means the product is a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy to soya.’
What other products are being recalled?
- David Wood Baking Ltd is recalling Farmfoods 50 Cocktail Sausage Rolls because the pack contains cheese and onion rolls which contain milk
- TJX Europe are recalling several Sultans Turkish Delights products, because they contain milk
- TriOn Pharma is recalling two food supplement products. Aactive D3 Drops and Aactive D3 Solution because they contain higher levels of vitamin D3 than written on the label
Affected batches are those that have a best before date of January 12, 2025, and number LS5007.
No other McGhee’s Family Bakers products are known to be affected, the agency confirmed.
The FFS added: ‘McGhee’s Family Bakers is recalling the above product which was sold at Asda and Sainsbury’s stores 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 point-of-sale notice to its customers.’
