Tesco has recalled two types of salad cream dressings over fears they could spark allergic reactions.
The supermarket is pulling its own-brand 50% Less Fat Salad Cream and Jack’s 50% Reduced Fat Salad Cream.
Only bottles of these sauces with a best before date of June 2022 are affected by the recall.
Tesco has recalled these salad creams because they contain milk which is not mentioned on the label.
This means the products are a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy or intolerance to milk, or those who follow a vegan diet.
According to the NHS website, symptoms of someone who is allergic to milk include diarrhoea, a bloated stomach, stomach cramps and feeling sick.
Those who aren’t intolerant to milk or who aren’t vegan are fine to eat the recalled batches.
Both salad creams that have been pulled from shelves are 450ml in size, with all batch codes affected.
Tesco says you don’t need a receipt to get your money back if you’ve purchased an affected sauce.
The Tesco version costs 79p.
In a notice on the Tesco website, it says: “We’re recalling Tesco 50% Less Fat Salad Cream 450ml with a best before end date of June 2022.
“We’ve been made aware it contains milk that is not declared on the packaging.
“If you’ve bought the affected product, do not consume it if you have an allergy or intolerance to milk or follow a vegan diet.
“Instead, return it to a Tesco store where a full refund will be given. No receipt is required.”
Other recent recalls to watch out for include Mr Porky Pork Scratchings that may be contaminated with salmonella.
Meanwhile, Quorn has pulled its Vegetarian Turkey and Stuffing Slices because they contain wheat which isn't mentioned on the label.

I don't shop at Tesco and don't like salad cream or anything like that and as for 'Vegetarian turkey and stuffing slices', just the sound of it is a turn off. I don't think even our Vegetarian Janet would not buy that stuff. @Happygirl
