Tesco has launched an urgent product recall for two of its chocolate bars after discovering they contain undeclared allergens, potentially putting customers at risk.
Which Products Are Affected?
The supermarket giant is recalling:
- Tesco Milk Chocolate Bars (180g) with best before dates of 31 August 2025 and 1 September 2025
- Tesco White Chocolate Bars (180g) with best before dates of 31 August 2025 and 1 September 2025
The products fail to mention hazelnuts and almonds in their ingredients list, creating a potential danger for those with nut allergies.
What Should Customers Do?
Tesco advises anyone who has purchased these items to:
- Check their chocolate bars for the affected batch codes
- Return the products to any Tesco store for a full refund
- Contact customer services with any concerns
The retailer has apologised for any inconvenience caused and is working with suppliers to prevent similar issues in future.
Food Safety Warning
The Food Standards Agency has classified this as a "precautionary recall" due to the potential health risk. Consumers with nut allergies could experience severe reactions if they consume these products.
Tesco stores across the UK have been instructed to remove all affected stock from shelves immediately.
