Asda has issued an urgent recall for a popular sandwich filler , urging buyers to return the item immediately. The supermarket giant has urged any shoppers with the item to return it to their nearest store. Anyone who has a 160g packet of Asda's own brand Hot and Spicy Chicken Breast Slices with the use-by date of May 30, 2025, should avoid eating it. The product comes in at £2.94 and is currently listed on Asda's website. If you have the sliced chicken with a different date, then your product is not affected. Similarly, no other chicken products from Asda are affected by the recall. The Food Standards Agency said in a statement on Tuesday, April 29, that the supermarket had "precautionarily" recalled the sliced chicken as those packets were showing an incorrect use-by date. The FSA issued a 'do not eat' warning over the item. Asda has promised a full refund for anyone who returns the product, with no need for a receipt. In a statement, they said: "Product has been packed with the incorrect use-by date. "If you have purchased Asda Hot and Spicy Chicken Breast Slices with a use-by date of May 30, please bring it back to your nearest store where you will be given a full refund.

For further information, contact ASDA's customer relations line on: 0800 952 0101." The Mirror reports that you can check the Food Standards Agency and Chartered Trading Standards Institute websites for any other recalls. You should also notice recall notices in stores if they've pulled a product from shelves. Asda was one of three supermarkets to make recalls of different products last week. They recalled their Simple To Cook Asian Inspired Pork Belly Slices, as the product's label may have neglected to note the presence of milk and sulphites. Morrisons urgently recalled its 400g pack of Morrisons The Best 6 Thick Cumberland Sausages, with a best before date of May 1, 2025, as it may have contained "small pieces of blue plastic". Elsewhere, Aldi pulled its Inspired Cuisine Baby Potatoes with Herbs and Butter because the label does not mention milk as an ingredient.

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 The recall notice states that the toy, from China, is now being rejected at the border. And a popular airfryer sold in B&M, Argos, Poundland and Tesco has been recalled due to the risk of it bursting into flames. Customers who have one of four models of the airfryer by Tower are being told to get in touch with the company. Models affected include the T17023 Tower 2.2Ltr Manual Air Fryer, T17061BLK Tower 4Ltr Manual Air Fryer, T17067 Tower 4Ltr Digital Air Fryer and the T17087 Tower 2Ltr Compact Manual Air Fryer. Anyone with an affected device is advised to unplug them and "stop using them immediately." A notice posted on the Tower Housewares' website reads: 'The fault has been deemed low risk by Trading Standards, however the safety and well-being of our customers is our top priority, and we have made the decision to voluntarily recall these models as a precautionary measure. 'The issue has been identified within specific batches of the affected products manufactured between January 2022 – April 2023.'
