Morrisons, Lidl and Tesco have all issued food safety notices about food products recently sold on their premises.
Morrisons has recalled Morrisons Crushed Garlic because it’s possibly “unsafe to eat”.
The Food Standards Agency (FSA) explained: “An ingredient has been omitted from the product that prevents microbiological growth making the product potentially unsafe to eat.”
Point of sale notices will be displayed in the stores to alert customers to the requested food recall.
The FSA added: “If you have bought the above product do not eat it. Instead return it to the store from where it was bought for a full refund.
Morrisons said “there is a potential risk to consumers” which is why the urgent recall has been issued.
