Tesco product recall
Food recalls are not extremely common but they must be taken seriously when they do occur.
The Food Standards Agency (FSA) explained: “If there is a problem with a food product that means it should not be sold, then it might be ‘withdrawn’ (taken off the shelves) or ‘recalled’ (when customers are asked to return the product).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 action to be taken on behalf of consumers.
Major supermarkets Tesco and Lidl have both recalled food products in recent days.
Growers Harvest Garden Peas
Tesco
The FSA said: “Tesco is recalling Growers Harvest Garden Peas because of possible contamination with an unknown type of berry, which may make this product unsafe to eat.”
