A number of popular food products, including fruit, crisps, and more, have been urgently recalled over the last week after serious safety concerns were identified. Shoppers are being warned not to eat the affected food items and to check packaging details carefully against official recall notices.
The recalls span multiple brands and food varieties, highlighting how widely the issue may affect supermarket shelves. Among the most alarming cases is one product that has been reported to potentially contain “pieces of metal.” We have compiled a list of last week’s recalled food items below.

Morrisons has issued a recall for its Maple & Bacon Back of the Net sharing snack after it was found that some packs may contain milk not declared on the label. The Food Standards Agency (FSA) warned it could pose a health risk to anyone with a milk allergy or intolerance.
Morrisons is removing the product from sale and has issued recall notices advising customers to return affected packs and avoid consuming them.
It attached a customer notice from Morrisons, which reads: “Please do not eat this product and return it to your nearest store for a full refund. We don’t need a receipt.
“No other products are affected by this issue. We apologise for the inconvenience this may cause and assure customers of our continuing commitment to the highest standard of product quality and safety.”
