‘Do not eat’ warning for sandwiches, pasta and dips extended over allergy fears

Must read

A “do not eat” warning has been extended to cover more food products including sandwiches, pasta and dipping sauces over peanut allergy risks.

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) issued a fourth update on the recall notice of FGS Ingredients Ltd products after a number contained mustard powder which may have been contaminated with peanuts.

The recalled items are said to be a risk for those with peanut allergies and are sold under a number of different brands across takeaways, shops and independent retailers.

Dominos Pizza’s popular garlic and herb and honey and mustard dips are among the products consumers with allergies should not eat.

A litany of SPAR sandwiches, wraps and pasta salads containing chicken, tuna and cheese among other items have also been recalled.

Tim Horton’s BBQ sauce dip may also contain traces of nuts, while garlic dips from ALDI are also affected.

An FSA statement read: “FGS Ingredients Ltd is recalling the above products and have been advised to contact the relevant allergy support organisations, which will tell their members about the recall.

“These products are sold under several different brand names at several different retail stores.

“Point of sale notices will be displayed where the products were sold.

“These notices explain to customers why the products are being recalled and tell them what to do if they have bought the products.”

FGS Ingredients Ltd has been contacted for comment.
