UK Supermarkets Issue Recalls Over Salmonella Risk and Allergen Labelling Failures

Customers should return listed items for a full refund with no receipt required.

Overview

  • Tesco pulled its 230g Grape & Berry Medley after salmonella was found in routine testing, covering use-by dates February 16 and 17, 2026, with the retailer stating no other Tesco products are affected.
  • Public health guidance notes fever, diarrhoea and abdominal cramps as common salmonella symptoms and advises staying away from work, school or nursery until 48 hours after symptoms stop.
  • Farmfoods recalled Ritz Cheese Sandwich 91g for undeclared milk, soya and wheat/gluten, limited to products originating from Indonesia, with refunds available in-store.
  • Morrisons withdrew its 3PK Strawberry Trifle over egg not being clearly emphasised on the label, posing a risk to those with egg allergy or intolerance, with refunds offered without a receipt.
  • Althams Fine Foods recalled chilled Supper Club Apple Crumble and Rhubarb Crumble sold in Booths (batch 02726, use by 06 February 2027) due to incorrect use-by dates that make the products unsafe to eat.
