Major UK supermarkets including Sainsbury's, Tesco, Asda, Morrisons, and Waitrose are recalling a range of food products due to potential health hazards. The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has issued multiple "do not eat" notices covering items such as pasta, fruit, crisps, chutney, and hot cross buns. Customers who have purchased any affected products are urged not to consume them and to return them for a full refund, with no receipt required.

Additionally, Morrisons is withdrawing its Maple & Bacon Back of the Net crisps (140g packs) with a best-before date of August 22. Due to a packaging error, the crisps may contain undeclared milk.
