Waitrose has issued an urgent recall for its Indian Takeaway for Two ready meal after discovering that some packs contain undeclared allergens. The Food Standards Agency (FSA) reported that certain packs were mispacked with spring rolls containing sesame and soya, which are not listed on the label.
The affected product is the Waitrose Indian Takeaway for Two (1,412g pack size) with a use-by date of July 25, 2025. Customers with allergies to sesame or soya are advised not to eat the product and to return it to any Waitrose & Partners branch for a full refund.
The FSA has issued an Allergy Alert, and Waitrose is contacting allergy support groups to inform their members. The recall follows concerns that incorrect or missing allergy labelling could pose a serious health risk, particularly as sesame allergy can cause severe reactions such as anaphylaxis.
Customers seeking further information can contact Waitrose Customer Care on 0800 188 844, option 4.
