Co-Op, Morrisons, Tesco, Asda, Lidl and Sainsbury's issue urgent product recalls for yoghurts, pancakes....
Supermarkets including the Co-Op, Morrisons, Tesco, Asda, Lidl and Sainsbury's are issuing an urgent recall on potentially dangerous food items. Products are recalled for a variety of reasons including a contaminated batch that might contain things such as broken glass.
Sometimes a food stuff might be found to have had an unlisted item in the ingredients that people might be allergic to. Sometimes the product recalls are issued when food has been been contaminated and carry deadly bacteria such as salmonella.
Salmonella is a common bacterial disease that affects the intestinal tract. Symptoms include diarrhoea, fever, as well as stomach cramps and the condition can be quite serious. Although rarely fatal, it can cause a significant risk to people with weakened immune systems such as the elderly, the very young, and those with cancer etc.
Below, we have a full list of product recalls from several leading supermarkets and other food companies. It is of vital importance that you return the affected items as soon as possible.
The Co-Op Lemon Curd Yogurt
The leading supermarket is recalling it due to a packing error. The product has been incorrectly packed into a Toffee Yogurt pot with a Lemon Curd lid.
This means the product is a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy or intolerance to egg. The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has detailed the recall on its website.
The yogurt comes in a pack, 150g in size and a use by date of September 14.
The FSA published its risk statement, saying: โThis product contains egg making it a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy or intolerance to egg.โ It also shared the action taken by the Co-op to warn customers about the recall.

In some cases the infection can be more severe and cause complications such as meningitis. Some people are more vulnerable to listeria infections, including those over 65 years of age, pregnant women and their unborn babies, babies less than one month old and people with weakened immune systems.
