The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has issued several urgent product recalls affecting popular food items sold at major UK supermarkets, including Asda, Sainsbury's, Morrisons, Tesco, and Waitrose. Consumers are advised not to eat the affected products and to return them for a full refund.
Morrisons Recalls Coronation Chicken Pasta and Crisps
Morrisons has withdrawn its Coronation Chicken Pasta 230g after some packages were found to contain Florida Salad, which includes milk not listed on the label. This poses a risk for those with milk allergies or intolerances. The affected packs have a use-by date of June 30 and batch code GBB 584 031.
Additionally, Morrisons is recalling its Maple & Bacon Back of the Net crisps (140g) with a best-before date of August 22 due to a packaging error that may result in undeclared milk. A Morrisons spokesman said: 'Please do not eat this product and return it to your nearest store for a full refund. We don't need a receipt.'
Morrisons Savers Cashews Withdrawn Over Glass Risk
Morrisons has also recalled its Savers Cashews 125g due to the possible presence of glass. The affected products have best-before dates of August 9, September 6, September 26, September 28, and October 9. The supermarket chain stated: 'No other products are affected by this issue. We apologise for the inconvenience this may cause.'

Caramelised Red Onion Chutney Recalled Over Metal Fragments
Fox's Burton's Companies (FBC) UK is recalling Arran Fine Foods Caramelised Red Onion Chutney sold at Tesco and Sainsbury's due to possible metal fragments. The affected batches include multiple best-before dates for 195g and 1.35kg packs, ranging from April 2027 to February 2029. The product has been removed from Sainsbury's website and is listed as 'out of stock' on Tesco's online store.
Waitrose Hot Cross Buns Withdrawn Due to Undeclared Barley
