Seaside creperie's Gallic flair in charming Anglesey village
It's quite easy to find Mojo's restaurant in Rhosneigr. It's opposite Scarlett's Fish & Chip bar and Gecko, a shop selling beach products and renting out surf boards. You come across it if you've parked in the village and are heading towards the beach. I called in on a sunny Wednesday lunchtime last week. It's been operating for some years and is continuing with its French-themed dishes on its pleasingly diverse menu. You can expect galettes and crepes among the more traditional choices of Chicken club sandwich, Smashed avocado on toast and Rocky Road dessert. The galettes - a pancake made with organic buckwheat flour and served with salad and slaw - include ones with Steak, mushrooms and blue cheese (£13.50) and a Yellow Dot galette with cheese, Welsh ham and a local free range egg yolk. (£12.95). However my heart sank as it seemed busy from the look of the packed, outdoor tables and I worried about getting a seat but almost all the indoor tables were available. I sat there and checked the menu. There's a good range of sandwiches and ciabattas. Steak ciabatta with caramelised onions (£15.95), Halloumi with homemade chilli jam and lettuce ciabatta (£12.50) sounded good, as did the Welsh ham & cheese ciabatta (£11.50). But I liked the idea of a Bloody Mary Prawn open sandwich. It was described as "Atlantic prawns with rustic tomato sauce, mayonnaise, hint of vodka, baby gem lettuce (in a) fresh, multigrain open sandwich." The prawns were lovely and soft, and sprinkled with paprika. The "hint of vodka" may have been there but wasn't noticeable to me, and the lettuce was rocket on this occasion. It was a lovely, well-presented, light meal. There was a nice touch - a warm, grilled lemon which when squeezed over the seafood really gave those prawns some zesty piquancy. The slice of brown bread was fresh. Desserts here include a Canadian pancake Stack with four light and fluffy pancakes for £8. Customers can add a rasher of "streaky bacon" for £2. I was impressed that extra toppings like strawberries and bananas only cost £1 each. The crepes included Rocky Road (£8.50) with chocolate pieces, biscuit, marshmallows and chocolate sauce, and Biscoff (£9.50). This had "clotted cream, ice cream and Biscoff crumble" and I ordered that. The crepe was doughy and warm and came with a sauce and a sprinkling of Biscoff crumbs rather than crumble as such. Personally I would have referred a more conventional, thicker crumble. Checking with the hardworking chef Jeff later he said the sauce was a Biscoff sauce. It was pleasant enough. The vanilla ice cream worked better with the crepe than the what seemed to be whipped cream on my visit, because its sweetness contrasted nicely with the savoury dough. The choice of drinks at the bar includes Brooklyn - The Stonewall Inn IPA, and Birrificio Angelo Poretti lager (4.8pc) aswell as products from The Rhosneigr Gin Company. Mojo's interior is unpretentious. There's a wooden floor with tables and bar made from planks of timber. In keeping with the coastal setting there are prints of a turtle and shell on the wall, and even a bizarre, seaweed, themed lampshade. I'd definitely call in again. Mojo's is a cut above your average seaside eaterie. A visit here sets you up nicely to explore this charming village and Rhosneigr's two beaches Traeth Crigyll and Traeth Llydan. The facts Location: Mojo's restaurant, bar & creperie, 7 Marine Terrace, High Street, Rhosneigr, Anglesey, LL64 5UQ. Tel.: 01407 810737.

Check Your Freezer—FDA Announces Potentially Life-Threatening Recall of Popular Ice Cream
Summer is just around the corner and ice cream is the quintessential warm weather treat. But if you have a carton or two chilling in your freezer, you might want to check the label. Breyers recently issued a recall on 6,668 cases of ice cream due to "undeclared allergens and mislabeled product." According to the FDA, the voluntary recall was initiated on June 2 because Breyers Rocky Road, which contains the almonds, was packaged incorrectly. The ice cream was packaged in Breyers Chocolate Truffle tubs with Rocky Road lids, which may be a concern for anyone who purchased the product and has a nut allergy. While almonds are a tree nut, the Chocolate Truffle tubs offer misleading ingredient information. The tubs say "may contain tree nuts" while the lids say "contain almonds." The FDA classified the recall as a Class II, which is defined as "a situation in which use of, or exposure to, a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote." So how do you know if your ice cream is affected? Take a peek at the packaging of your Breyers ice cream tub. Affected products have the lot number: JUL1026GB3 and UPC code: 077567457288. In a statement to PEOPLE, Breyers says: "People with an almond allergy should not consume the product due to risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction. The safety and quality of our products is our top priority. For more information, consumers can visit or call 1-800-931-2826." You Might Also Like Can Apple Cider Vinegar Lead to Weight Loss?

Breyers recalls 6,600 cases of Rocky Road ice cream over potentially life-threatening allergen
Unilever subsidiary Breyers has issued a nationwide recall of more than 6,600 cases of Rocky Road ice cream after a packaging error resulted in potentially dangerous allergen mislabeling, according to a newly released enforcement report from the Food and Drug Administration. The June 2 recall involves 6,668 cases — each containing multiple units — of Rocky Road ice cream that were mistakenly packaged in tubs labeled as Breyers Chocolate Truffle. While the tub label stated 'may contain tree nuts,' the lid identified the product correctly as Rocky Road and declared almonds as an ingredient. 3 Unilever subsidiary Breyers has issued a nationwide recall of more than 6,600 cases of Rocky Road ice cream. MelissaMN – The FDA classified the incident as a Class II recall, indicating that exposure to the mislabeled product could cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, particularly for individuals with nut allergies. The mislabeled ice cream was distributed to retail stores and distribution centers across the United States. The affected product is listed under lot number JUL1026GB3 with the UPC 077567457288. The mix-up involves Breyers' 1.5-quart Rocky Road ice cream, which contains almonds — a tree nut that can trigger severe allergic reactions. In contrast, the Chocolate Truffle tub that was used by mistake doesn't clearly state that it contains almonds. Instead, it only carries a vague 'may contain tree nuts' warning, which could put people with nut allergies at serious risk if they rely on the label to stay safe. Although the recall is ongoing, no press release has been issued by the company as of Tuesday, and the FDA has listed the case status as open. 3 The June 2 recall involves 6,668 cases of Rocky Road ice cream that were mistakenly packaged in tubs labeled as Breyers Chocolate Truffle. Breyers Unilever notified affected retailers and distributors via letter, according to the FDA's Enforcement Report. The Post has sought comment from Unilever. The recalled product was manufactured at Unilever's facility located at 2400 Rose Parkway in Sikeston, Mo. Unilever has not announced when the recall will be fully resolved, and the FDA has not yet marked the case as terminated. Consumers with nut allergies are advised to check their freezers and return or discard any products matching the affected lot number. Anyone experiencing allergic reactions after consuming the product should seek medical attention immediately. While the labeling error may seem minor, the consequences for consumers with severe allergies can be life-threatening. Unilever is one of the world's largest consumer goods companies, with a sprawling portfolio of brands across food, personal care and household product categories. 3 Breyers, founded in 1866, was acquired by Anglo-Dutch multinational Unilever for $2.6 billion in 1993. billtster – Headquartered in London, the Anglo-Dutch multinational operates in more than 190 countries and serves billions of consumers every day through well-known names like Dove, Hellmann's, Axe, Vaseline and Knorr. In the food and beverage sector, Unilever has long been a dominant player, particularly in condiments, dressings and frozen treats. Unilever's ice cream division is among the largest in the world, operating under the Heartbrand logo in many countries and encompassing a diverse set of brands including Ben & Jerry's, Magnum, Cornetto, Klondike and Breyers. Unilever acquired Breyers in 1993 through its $2.6 billion purchase of Kraft General Foods' frozen dessert division. That deal also included the Sealtest brand and helped Unilever cement its leadership in the US ice cream market. Breyers, founded in 1866, remains a staple in American grocery freezers and is known for its 'simple ingredients' marketing and wide range of family-sized flavors.

Urgent dried fruit recall in 19 states over serious health risk
Dried fruit sold in multiple states has been recalled due to a serious health risk. Turkana Food Inc issued a recall on 352 cases of its Floria Dried Apricots, according to a press release shared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration on Thursday. The product was recalled because it contains an undeclared allergen, sulfites, or 'chemicals used as preservatives' added to foods, beverages, and medications to prevent them from spoiling, according to the Cleveland Clinic. According to the FDA, the recall came after routine sampling, performed by the New York State Department of Agriculture, revealed that the product contained sulfites, which 'were not listed on the product labeling.' As Turkana Food Inc continues an 'investigation to correct the issue with the manufacturer,' production and distribution of the product by the FDA has been ceased. The recalled Floria Dried Apricots were sold at stores in 19 states: Alabama, California, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia. The product has the LOT number 440090478-15-333 on the bottom portion of the packaging. The UPC Label 2539560010 is marked by a sticker on the side of the packaging. The expiration date of November 2026 is also on the bottom of the packaging. Consumers who have the recalled product should not consume it. The FDA is also urging consumer to return the dried apricots to the place of purchase for a full refund. There have been no reported illnesses so far. Most often, people with asthma have allergies and sensitivities to sulfites. Earlier this week, P. East Trading Corp. also urgently recalled its Salted Smoked Split Herring because it may have been contaminated with Clostridium botulinum, a bacterium that can cause illness or death. Botulism is a rare but serious condition caused by a toxin that attacks the body's nerves. Symptoms include general weakness, dizziness, double-vision, trouble with speaking or swallowing, difficulty in breathing, abdominal distension, and constipation. Then, on Tuesday, 6,668 cases of Breyers Chocolate Truffle Ice Cream was also recalled following customer concerns that there was a mislabeling error. The recall came after it was found that the tubs actually contained Rocky Road ice cream. The Chocolate Truffle flavor has an allergen label that reads, 'may contain tree nuts,' while the Rocky Road flavor declares almonds as one of the ingredients. The last two years have also seen an alarming and unexplained rise in recalls. In 2024, approximately 300 food recalls were issued, with those recalls being linked to nearly 1,400 illnesses, a Public Interest Research Group report revealed. Out of the 1,400 illnesses, 487 people became sick enough to require hospitalization, and 19 people died. While those numbers are still low when weighed against the entire U.S. population, they are also double the number of hospitalizations and deaths from food-borne illnesses in 2023.
