Capsicana Recalls Salsa Sold at Tesco, Sainsbury's, Morrisons and Ocado
The 285g jar contains undeclared barley and mustard, and the Food Standards Agency says it may pose a health risk to people with allergies or coeliac disease.
On Friday, July 3, 2026, the Food Standards Agency announced that Capsicana is recalling its Easy Going Mild Salsa sold at Tesco, Sainsbury, Morrisons, and Ocado due to "unlabelled allergens" including barley and mustard.
A 285g jar with batch code 6091 and a May 2027 best before date poses a health risk for consumers with mustard or barley allergies. The FSA advises affected customers to "do not eat it."
Customers who purchased the salsa can return it to the store for a full refund without a receipt. Capsicana confirmed no other products are affected and provides a consumer care line for further information.
To ensure consumer safety, the FSA issued a "Food Alert for Action" to inform local authorities of specific steps needed to remove the product from retail shelves.
Recalls occur when a product should not be sold, requiring items to be "withdrawn" from shelves or "recalled" when customers are asked to return them. Product Recall Information Notices keep the public informed about food safety concerns.
