Moma Porridge Products Recalled Over Mouse Contamination Fears

Moma Foods, the British porridge and oat drink brand, has recalled several of its products due to possible mouse contamination at its manufacturing site. The recall affects seven porridge pot varieties and two sachet products.

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) issued a statement on Sunday, warning consumers not to eat the affected items and to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund. The FSA said the products “may contain mouse contamination making them unsafe to eat.”

The recalled porridge pots include almond butter and salted caramel; apple, cinnamon and brown sugar; banana and peanut butter protein; blueberry and vanilla; cranberry and raisin; golden syrup; and plain no-added sugar. The sachet products affected are almond butter and salted caramel, and apple, cinnamon and brown sugar.

Point of sale notices will be displayed in retail stores and on their websites, with an alert also on Moma’s website. Moma said that while the risk of contamination is low, the recall is a precautionary measure to ensure consumer safety.

Moma Foods was founded in 2006 in a railway arch in Deptford, south-east London, initially selling porridge and smoothies.
