Wall's Mini Milk Vanilla, Strawberry & Chocolate Ice Cream Lollies have been recalled from supermarket shelves over allergy risk
Shoppers have been warned not to eat Wall's Mini Milk Vanilla Strawberry & Chocolate Ice Cream Lollies.
The ice cream contains milk and may have pistachios, peanuts and soya which could endanger allergy sufferers.
The Food Standards Agency confirmed that labels on certain 10x35ml packs display ingredients in Spanish rather than English.
It means customers with an allergy or intolerance to milk, soya or nuts could miss the important allergen information.
Supermarkets have put out point of sale notice which explains why the product has been recalled.
Affected products show a use by date up to May 2027 which can be found on the side of the box.
Consumers with allergies have been asked to contact Unilever for more guidance and refund.
A national alert was also issued by the FSA, who advised Brits to avoid the product.
Unilever has apologised to the customers and added that no other Wall's products have been affected.
The statement read: " We apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your co-operation."
Allergy alert for chocolate cupcakes
Exposure to traces of peanuts can prove fatal for those who suffer with the allergy.
It comes as a mum issued a stark warning after her allergic 20-year-old daughter died after eating a few mouthfuls of a ready meal.
Jess North, who had a severe peanut allergy, tragically died from an anaphylactic reaction on May 9, 2021.
Devastated Mum Maxine, from Aldingbourne, West Sussex, told how her daughter had only consumed "a couple of mouthfuls".
The brave mum has since been on a mission to raise awareness over severe allergies - and in particular the lack of up to date epipens.

Asda urgently recalls popular £12.50 shoes over risk of dangerous ‘skin reaction' after illegal levels of metal found
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) ASDA is urgently recalling a popular pair of shoes after illegal levels of metal were found in the trim. The supermarket has confirmed that the £12.50 shoes have a risk of causing a dangerous 'skin reaction'. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Asda is recalling a popular pair of shoes Credit: Getty 3 The shoes were found to have illegal levels of metal in the trim Credit: Asda Asda is urgently recalling its George Ladies double buckle flatbed sandals in All Sizes. Testing found that the rivet part of the shoe's trim contains 'nickel levels that exceed the permissible limits under the REACH regulations' - according to Asda's website. The presence of the metal could cause an "adverse skin reaction' to some customers. The supermarket is recalling both the lilac and sage varieties of the product, which retail in Asda for £12.50. In a boost to customers, Asda are offering full refunds to anyone who bought the lilac or sage shoes. No other colours are impacted by the recall though. The chain has confirmed that no receipt is needed for the refund. On its website, Asda wrote: 'We are very sorry for any inconvenience caused. 'If you would like any further information please contact Asda Customer Relations – 0330 053 0111'. The news comes after Tesco launched an urgent recall of a hugely popular beauty product. Four simple ways to save money at Asda The supermarket's Kind & Pure Facial Cleansing Wipes were pulled from shelves after a microbiological risk was detected by experts. After testing, the Pluralibacter gergoviae bacterium was detected in some batches of the product. The bacteria can be unsafe for those with a compromised skin barrier and is even linked to respiratory diseases, weakness and fever in those with a compromised immune system. Both the Fragrance Free Camomile & Rosehip + Pro-Vitamin B5 and the Vitamin C Grapefruit & Cranberry Extract wipes were recalled.. The two sets of wipes failed to meet the requirements of Regulation (EC) 1223/2009 or the Cosmetic Products Enforcement Regulations 2013. Meanwhile, a popular sweet sold at TK Maxx and Homesense stores between October 2024 and May 2025 has been recalled. The Lucky DIp Ltd.'s Jolly Rancher Block Bag is thought to contain additives not permitted in the UK making it unsafe to eat. Shoppers are being offered a full refund or replacement for the product as the Food Standards Agency (FSA), advises all retailers who sold the product to move quickly. Your product recall rights Chief consumer reporter James Flanders reveals all you need to know. Product recalls are an important means of protecting consumers from dangerous goods. As a general rule, if a recall involves a branded product, the manufacturer would usually have lead responsibility for the recall action. But it's often left up to supermarkets to notify customers when products could put them at risk. If you are concerned about the safety of a product you own, always check the manufacturer's website to see if a safety notice has been issued. When it comes to appliances, rather than just food items, the onus is usually on you - the customer - to register the appliance with the manufacturer as if you don't there is no way of contacting you to tell you about a fault. If you become aware that an item you own has been recalled or has any safety noticed issued against it, make sure you follow the instructions given to you by the manufacturer. They should usually provide you with more information and a contact number on its safety notice. In some cases, the manufacturer might ask you to return the item for a full refund or arrange for the faulty product to be collected. You should not be charged for any recall work - such as a repair, replacement or collection of the recalled item

Sam Faiers slammed for offering sister Billie ‘dangerous' advice about son's medical issue
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SAM Faiers has been slammed for offering her sister Billie 'dangerous' advice about her son's medical issue. The two sisters are chatting about eight-year-old Arthur getting his tonsils removed in a clip from their show Sister Act. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Sam Faiers has been slammed for offering her sister Billie 'dangerous' advice about her son's medical issue Credit: instagram 3 She encourages her sister to get an intolerance test for Arthur before going ahead with surgery Credit: Instagram Billie says: 'Arthur is getting his tonsils out. He had tonsillitis I'd say six times last year, and it made him so poorly. 'When the doctor looked at them, straight away he said to me 'nah…' he went 'they are really, really unhealthy tonsils. 'But tonsils serve no purpose in your body.' Sam is quick to offer her thoughts on the situation, and admits later in the clip that she's very much into holistic health. She encourages her sister to get an intolerance test for Arthur before going ahead with surgery, saying: 'Everything in your body serves a purpose. 'When you're not well and something inflames in your body or your tonsils are raised or your hair is falling out, or you've got a rash, it's because your body is telling you something isn't right. 'So it's Arthur's body's way of telling him I've got an allergy, or you know, I've got a virus and that's his way. 'So when they're out, how else is his body going to tell you that something is wrong?' Billie replies saying that she believes her son has some kind of allergy or intolerance. Sam Faiers mum-shamed after fans spot detail that's 'giving them nightmares' in new video with youngest son But fans have slammed Sam's advice in the comments, with one writing: 'She's no doctor and shouldn't be allowed to give advice thats dangerous.' A second person said: 'Sam who encourages children to not wear sunscreen and doubts effectiveness of nhs mammograms.' A third wrote: 'Mrs Know It All,' and a fourth commented: 'Don't ever mess about waiting for tonsils out mine was left when I was you by 17 rushed into hospital because it made me soo ill had swollen all over from leaking I've had fibromyalgia for 15 years nothing can help and now serve arthritis all over from sport pus single parent disabled daughter I wish I could dream everything be OK with positivity or a cream or holistic but life not like that.' It comes after Sam hit back at trolls last month who slammed her for not putting sun cream on her three kids. The reality star, 34, shared a "dangerous" conspiracy theory, saying her kids have "built up a tolerance" to sunburn. In response to the backlash, Sam admitted she was not an medical expert but was sharing her own experience with sunscreen. She wrote on Instagram: "Wow, I've received so many kind and supportive messages from my sunscreen post. Thank you. "I'd definitely recommend doing a little research into which tallow you'd like to use, there are lots of amazing options out there." She continued: "PS: Just sharing my experience and tips (not an expert)." The reality star then shared a photo of a brand of tallow that she usually relies on as an alternative to sunscreen. Sam's confession came after she decided to do a Q&A with fans. During it, one person asked the former Towie star: 'What suntan lotion do you use as you have a good natural colour?' Sam, who is mum to Paul, 5, Rosie, 5, and three-year-old Edward, shared: 'So this is always a bit of a controversial one, but honestly, me and my whole family don't actually wear sunscreen. 'Over the years, the kids have built up a really good tolerance to being in the sun. Of course, if it's really hot and the sun feels too harsh. 'I'll make sure we head into the shade.. usually around lunchtime we'll go in, have something to eat, and just avoid those peak hours.' She went on: 'I'm really careful about sunscreen in general, because a lot of them are actually pretty harmful and full of toxic ingredients. 'If you do want to protect your kids, I think SPF swimwear is such a good and safer option. But also, don't be afraid of the sun! Early in the morning or later in the afternoon when it's not as strong, I love letting the kids run around and soak it up it's so good for them. 'That said, I do always bring a Tallow Zine SPF with me when I go away, just in case. And hats or caps are a must! especially for us ladies, because no one wants extra sun damage (I've had my fair share over the years because I'm such a sun lover!).' Fans have commented on Sam's latest post to share their concern after her suncreen message. One person wrote: 'You need to delete your story about not wearing sunscreen I don't think you understand the damage you can do to your followers by promoting this.' Someone else said: 'absolutely agree - so irresponsible!!' and a third echoed: ' was in shock - 'kids have grown a tolerance to the sun over the years' wtf?! Happy for them to get skin cancer then?'

Parents fear social media has had a bigger influence on their children's behaviour than school
Many parents fear social media forces their kids to compare themselves to others TIK'D OFF Parents fear social media has had a bigger influence on their children's behaviour than school Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) PARENTS fear social media has had a bigger influence on their children's behaviour than school. A poll of 1,000 mums and dads of kids aged 12-16 found 28 per cent are 'uncomfortable' with the 'values' their child is exposed to online. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 A large portion of parents surveyed were 'uncomfortable' with online values Credit: SWNS 2 The research is part of the Greater Game initiative Credit: SWNS With 63 per cent convinced their teens put themselves under pressure by compare themselves to others online - whether that's fitness levels or self-image. As many as 27 per cent think social media has had the greatest impact on their kid's behaviour - ahead of teachers and the classroom (22 per cent). The research was commissioned by The FA Baller ID, a new initiative from 'The Greater Game' programme which aims to tackle negative social media influence, identity pressures and health challenges among young people. Fronted by England footballers, including Bukayo Saka, Georgia Stanway, and Doug Pratt, it uses football to counter this influence and inspire positive behavioural change through its interactive platform. Kelly Mackintosh, professor of physical activity and health at Swansea University, said: 'This initiative is grounded in the idea that small, achievable actions, when made relatable, can help build lasting healthy habits. 'By tapping into young people's identity, social connections, and motivation to belong, the campaign draws on behavioural science principles to support positive change. 'Football has long been shown to encourage physical activity, teamwork, and emotional wellbeing, and this initiative uses that foundation to help young people move, sleep, eat, and think more healthily.' The research also found 91 per cent of parents believe a sense of belonging is important to their child's emotional wellbeing. While their children, who were also polled, admitted to feeling the strongest sense of belonging from being with close friends (21 per cent) and playing sport as part of a team (10 per cent). However, their mums and dads think their kids feel this strongest when at home (38 per cent), according to the figures. If given only one option, a third of parents would most like to influence their child's online media exposure over school or peer groups (15 per cent), extra-curricular activities (13 per cent), and access to role models (12 per cent). Family encouragement (26 per cent) is the most cited motivator for young people forming better habits, followed by school or sports performance (17 per cent), body image or appearance (16 per cent) and online content (12 per cent). Sports TV presenter and parent Jake Humphry said: 'As a parent of two children, and someone deeply committed to changing the narrative for young people, I think this is a brilliant initiative. 'In this online comparison-culture world our young people are struggling to navigate, it helps young people understand who they are, not just who they're told to be, and gives them simple, healthy ways to feel better in themselves in an engaging and rewarding way.' James Kendall, The FA's Director of Football Development, added: 'This initiative offers a fresh and innovative approach to not only engage 12-16-year-olds in making positive lifestyle choices, but to support families and coaches in making football a force for better health and wellbeing in young people. 'This platform uses the power of positive role models to do this, focusing on identity, belonging, and the simple, healthy actions young people can make every day.'
