'Do not eat' warning issued to Tesco shoppers after 'health risk' recall
Tesco told customers to return affected 270g packs for a full refund after the wrong salad mix was packed inside coleslaw labels.
- On Wednesday, Tesco recalled its Tesco Finest Caesar and Smoked Bacon Coleslaw after a packaging error caused some 270g packs to contain Tesco Finest Four Cheese Potato Salad instead.
- The mispackaging poses a "possible health risk" for consumers with a mustard allergy, according to the Food Standards Agency , because the coleslaw label fails to declare the potato salad's mustard ingredients.
- Affected items are 270g packs with a use-by date of September 4, 2026. The FSA advises consumers with a mustard allergy not to eat the product.
- Tesco has issued a recall notice instructing customers to return the item to any store for a full refund. The retailer also contacted allergy support organizations to inform members about the recall.
- The FSA issues an "Allergy Alert" when missing labels create food safety risks, explaining that products are "withdrawn" or "recalled" when they should not be sold due to hazards.
