A range of pies has been recalled after they were labelled with the wrong use-by date, the Food Standards Agency (FSA) has said. The pies, made by Pieminister Kitchens, were labelled with the use-by date of June 24, 2026, rather than 2025.
Pieminister said the pies were made on the same day this week in the company's Bristol bakery and were safe to eat until their intended use-by date of June 24.
In a statement, the company apologised for the 'technical issue' and said: 'We are working closely with our technical teams and have implemented additional measures to prevent similar issues from occurring in the future.'
The affected products, marked 24.06.2026 on the side of the box, include Pieminister's Moo, Kate & Sidney, Deer & Beer and Fungi Chicken pies.
The FSA advised customers not to eat the affected pies beyond the intended use-by date and said they could be returned to the store where they were bought for a refund.
It said: "Pieminister Kitchens is recalling various Pieminister pies as they have been labelled with an incorrect use-by date. The products have been labelled with use-by June 24, 2026, instead of use-by June 24, 2025. The products are therefore not safe to eat beyond their intended use-by of June 24 this year."
