There is a "physical contamination risk" in the product, which can be returned for a full refund. An urgent recall has been issued for a condiment due to a "physical contamination risk". Customers have been told "do not eat" a particular batch of the spread as it may contain "pieces of metal". Daylesford Organic have urged customers to return their Cacao Double Nut Butter as it is "unsafe to eat" due to the potential presence of metal ball bearings. Daylesford run several stores in London and the Cotswolds. They also supply some other products to around 50 Marks and Spencer stores across the UK, including a number in Scotland. The Food Standards Agency (FSA), who regularly issue recall warnings about potentially dangerous products, have confirmed this is an England-specific recall. The choking hazard and contamination is for batch 230625, which is a 230g jar of the Cacao Double Nut Butter with a best before date of 02/2027. Any shoppers who have bought the product with this information have been told not to eat it. Instead, they should return it for a full refund. And if customers have any queries about the product then they should contact Daylesford Organic directly on 01608 731700. In their warning note to customers, the food firm said: "We are recalling Daylesford Organic Cacao Double Nut Butter because of a physical contamination risk in the product. "This product may contain metal ball bearings, which presents a choking hazard and makes it unsafe to eat. "Check if you bought this product. Best before: 02/2027. Batch: 230625. Do not consume and return for a full refund. For more info, please call 01608 731700." Issuing their own advice to customers, 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." The FSA's alerts about food products usually fall under two categories; products that are 'withdrawn' and others that are 'recalled'. If there is an issue with a product that means it should not be eaten, the FSA will issue advice. Withdrawn products are removed from shelves, whereas customers are asked to return recalled items to the store. The FSA website states: "The FSA issues Product Recall Information Notices to let consumers and local authorities know about problems associated with food. "In some cases, a 'Food Alert for Action' is issued. This provides local authorities with details of specific action to be taken on behalf of consumers." Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

On Wednesday, August 6, we told how the FSA had issued a recall for a cream product that could cause a rash, vomiting, or diarrhoea. Multimedia UK recalled its European Food Viva Cream Snacks. The product contains milk, which isn't mentioned on the label. This means that they pose a number of potential health risks for those with allergies. The alert is specific to Scotland, England, and Wales. Allergic reactions can cause a series of issues from irritating but smaller scale things like sneezing, a runny nose, and watery eyes, to more serious problems like feeling or being sick, stomach pain, diarrhoea or constipation. And a certain brand of herbs sold at popular supermarkets were also recalled. Various O'Hanlon Herbs Potted Coriander products were whipped from shelves amid concerns they may contain Listeria monocytogenes As well as the O'Hanlon-branded products, which include a batch sold at Lidl, similar Marks and Spencer and Tesco coriander products have also been included in the recall.

Daylesford Organic recalls nut butter over fears it poses choking hazard
Daylesford Organic, a company based in Oxfordshire, says the Cacao Double Nut Butter may contain pieces of metal and therefore the business is recalling the product A popular butter product has been recalled because of fears it poses a choking hazard. Cacao Double Nut Butter, produced by Daylesford Organic, is unsafe to eat because it may contain metal ball bearings, according to the Food Standards Agency. It says Daylesford Organic, which is based in Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, has recalled batches of the product. The company has issued a recall notice to its customers about the Cacao Double Nut Butter, relevant batches of which comes in 230g pots and have expiry dates of February 2027. It comes after the Food Standards Agency told stores to "immediately stop selling" a popular chocolate bar amid health and safety concerns. In relation to the nut butter, the Food Standards Agency says: "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." Daylesford Organic's recall notice, which was issued on Wednesday, states it is concerned about a "physical contamination risk" and urges customers to check if they have bought a product from the affected batches. "This product may contain metal ball bearings, which present a choking hazard and makes it unsafe to eat," Daylesford Organic said in the urgent notice. The warning has been published online alongside the Food Standards Agency's advice. The Food Standards Agency continues: "If there is a problem with a food product that means it should not be sold, then it might be 'withdrawn' (taken off the shelves) or 'recalled' (when customers are asked to return the product). "The FSA issues Product Recall Information Notices to let consumers and local authorities know about problems associated with food. In some cases, a 'Food Alert for Action' is issued. This provides local authorities with details of specific action to be taken on behalf of consumers." Product recalls explained This month, Lidl issued a recall of a popular chicken product. The major supermarket said its Red Hen 4 Tempura Chicken Steaks posed "a health risk for anyone with an allergy or intolerance to milk or milk constituents". And the recall on August 2, issued via the UK Food Standards Agency, said the product did not emphasise that it contains milk on the label. The 380g packs that have been recalled include 'all stock' with the best before dates December 11, December 16 and December 22 all in 2026. Products with the best before date January 16, 2027, were also recalled over fears of a health risk. It comes as people are being warned to keep an eye on signs and symptoms that could point to a disease which causes weakness that gets progressively worse.
