Asda, Tesco, Boots & more issue recalls as customers given safety warnings

UK retailers recall various products including toys, pet food, and home items due to safety risks like asbestos, choking hazards, and fire risk, affecting millions of customers.

  • In recent weeks the Office for Product and Safety Standards issued recall alerts as Asda recalled Stretcherz 'Stretch' and 'Slammers' figures and Hobbycraft voluntarily recalled its Giant Box of Craft after asbestos traces were found.
  • Brand testing this month showed Hello Sunday The One For Your Eyes Mineral Eye Cream SPF50 had lower SPF, while safety checks found Hapello Power Train may release a choking hazard dome and Southern Arbor Electric Rechargeable Hot Water Bottle poses a fire risk.
  • Penguin Random House UK/Ladybird recalled Peppa Pig and Hey Duggee books with ISBNs 9780241321539, 9780241448625, 9780241476406, 9780241476772, 9781405947350, and Tesco, Morrisons and Waitrose recalled Lily's Kitchen Pasta al Ragu 400g with barcodes 5050837662419 and 5050835105345.
  • Consumers are urged to stop using recalled products immediately and return them for a full refund; retailers provided Tesco store locator, Waitrose Customer Care 0800 188 884, and sand.enquiries@htigroup.co.uk.
  • A Tesco recall of a novelty Valentine's mug shows risks across household items, while some recalls like the Stretcherz toy line are narrowly scoped; retailers set up helplines such as Asda Customer Relations 0330 053 0111 for follow-up.
