Shoppers warned 'do not eat' popular dessert item from Waitrose due to recall
The Food Standards Agency says the dessert poses a possible health risk for people with oat or gluten allergies and coeliac disease.
- Waitrose is recalling its 500g Waitrose Rhubarb Crumble after identifying undeclared oats on the packaging, posing a health risk to those with gluten intolerance or coeliac disease.
- Although the use-by date was August 19, 2026, the product carries home-freezing instructions allowing storage for one month, meaning customers may still have the dessert in their freezers.
- The Food Standards Agency warns the item is a "possible health risk" for those with allergies; customers must return it to Waitrose or contact Waitrose Customer Care on 0800 188 884, option 4.
- Separately, Summit Foods recently recalled several wrap products, including the Snacksters Chicken Fajita Wrap and East Street Deli Sweet Chilli Chicken Wrap, following the possible presence of STEC.
- Iceland also issued a recall for the Snacksters wrap, urging customers to dispose of it immediately; Summit Foods identified the safety issue during routine testing and is collaborating with authorities.
