Tesco has been forced to issue an urgent product recall and a direct message to its customers after a potentially hazardous object was discovered in a bag of its own-brand frozen vegetables.
The supermarket giant acted swiftly after a shopper found an unexpected piece of plastic within a bag of Tesco Broccoli, Green Beans, Garden Peas & Sweetcorn mix. The discovery poses a serious safety risk, particularly a choking hazard.
Which Products Are Affected?
The recall is specific to a single batch. Customers are urged to check their freezers immediately for the following product:
- Product: Tesco Broccoli, Green Beans, Garden Peas & Sweetcorn (4 Veg Mix)
- Pack Size: 720g
- Batch Code: L-3322
- Best Before Date: All date codes up to and including June 2025
The presence of the sharp plastic fragment makes the product unfit for consumption and a direct risk to consumer safety.
What Should You Do?
Tesco has issued clear instructions for any customer who has purchased the affected batch:
- Do not consume the product.
- Return the item to your nearest Tesco store for a full refund.
- You do not need to have the receipt to qualify for the refund.
The supermarket has apologised for any inconvenience caused and thanked customers for their cooperation. The recall is a precautionary measure to ensure the highest standards of food safety.
If you have any further questions or concerns, you are advised to contact Tesco Customer Services directly for assistance.
