Morrisons issues urgent recall for sausages that are 'unsafe to eat'
A packet of Morrisons sausages are being urgently recalled due to a health and safety issue. If you have bought them, it's advised not to consume them as they are "unsafe to eat." The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has issued a new food alert today, Friday, April 25. It explains that the supermarket's own-branded The Best Six Thick Cumberland Sausages have been recalled as they "may contain small pieces of blue plastic." The presence of plastic affects 400g pack sizes with a use by date of Thursday, May 1. Morrisons has advised no other products have been affected by the issue. Shoppers who have purchased the affected sausages are being urged not to consume them, but to instead return them to their nearest Morrisons store for a full refund even without a receipt. Following its recall, the supermarket giant has since displayed point of sale notices in all stores that sell the products to explain why they are being recalled and what to do if they have been bought. Morrisons said in its notice: "We apologise for the inconvenience this may cause and assure customers of our continuing commitment to the highest standard of product quality and safety." The FSA often posts food alerts to alert customers and authorities when there is an issue with a food product. This explains the recall information, providing details of the action that needs to be taken by anyone who has purchased the affected product. The food watchdog also issues alerts when there is a risk to consumers due to missing or inaccurate allergy labelling. These are known as allergy alerts, which we have reported on in the past few weeks. On Wednesday, April 23, Damasgate Wholesale recalled its Sofra Potato Chips Seasoning after it was discovered to contain peanuts, an ingredient not included on the list of ingredients. Posing a potential life-threatening risk to those with a peanut allergy, the recall affected 100g pack sizes, alongside all lot numbers and best before dates. We also reported that the company also issued the same recall for 12 spices earlier in March. Elsewhere at Asda , the Asda Simple To Cook Asian Inspired Pork Belly Slices were mispacked with Asda Simple To Cook Tomato & Mozzarella Pork Meatballs, meaning they contained undeclared milk and sulphites. This meant that the pork belly slices were unsuitable for anyone with an allergy or sensitivity to the milk, milk constituents and also sulphites. Packs affected were 380 with a use by date of Friday, April 25. Asda said in its recall notice: "We are sorry for any inconvenience caused. If you would like further information, please contact Asda Customer Relations - 0800 952 0101." We also recently shared how Aldi customers were warned not to eat the Inspired Cuisine Baby Potatoes with Herbs and Butter after they were found to contain undeclared milk. Packs recalled were 385g with a use by date of Saturday, April 12, 2025. Aldi added: "We apologise that this product did not meet our normal high standards and thank you for your co-operation."

Aldi issues 'do not eat' warning as it recalls popular product
Aldi has issued an urgent product recall for its Inspired Cuisine Baby Potatoes with Herbs and Butter, specifically the 385g pack with a use-by date of April 12, 2025. The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has warned that the product may pose "a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy or intolerance to milk or milk constituents" after it was found to contain milk, which was not listed on the packaging. The FSA also advised: 'If you have bought the above product and have an allergy or intolerance to milk or milk constituents, do not eat it.' In the UK, approximately one in 10 older children and adults suffer from lactose intolerance, which can cause discomfort and digestive issues. In light of this, Anaphylaxis UK has issued a statement urging its members to take action: "If you have purchased the above product and have an allergy or intolerance to milk, do not consume it. Please return it to your nearest ALDI store for a full refund." An Aldi representative said: "Our supplier is recalling Inspired Cuisine Baby Potatoes with Herbs and Butter because it contains the allergen milk, which is not listed on the packaging. Customers are advised to return the product to their nearest store for a full refund. We apologise for the inconvenience caused and thank you for your understanding." Customers can visit the Aldi website here or contact customer services on 0800 042 0800 for further information. This is not the first recall issued by Aldi. Last week, the retailer urgently recalled a popular Spanish-style crisp after it was found to contain milk and soy, which were not declared on the label. In 2024, Aldi also recalled Soupreme Creamy Chicken Soup after discovering that the product may have contained peanuts, an undeclared allergen. Aldi is not alone in issuing product recalls. 3D Trading recalled Ruffles Sabor and Jamon Crisps due to unidentified allergens. Sainsbury's recently warned customers to return any Belgian milk chocolate bars they had purchased, following concerns about undeclared ingredients.

Instead, return it to the store it was bought from for a full refund. 'For more information please visit: or contact Aldi customer services on 0800 042 0800.' 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 Withdrawal Information Notices and 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 actions to be taken on behalf of consumers.
