'Do not eat': Urgent warning issued as three Christmas food products pulled from sale
⚠ Customers are being urged to return the products
- Three Christmas food products have been recalled over a safety risk
- The Food Standards Agency has issued an urgent warning
- Customers are being urged not to eat the items, but return them for a full refund
An urgent warning has been issued over three Christmas food products, which have been pulled from sale.
Flapjackery is recalling all products containing its Mince Pie Crumble Flapjack because they contain almonds in the crumb, which is not mentioned on the label. This poses a serious health risk for anyone with a tree nut allergy.
The items being recalled are:
- Flapjackery Mince Pie Crumble Flapjack (170g)
- Flapjackery Christmas Towers box (6x85g)
- Flapjackery Rudolph box (6x170g)
All products have a best-before date of March 2026.
Anyone with a nut allergy who has purchased the items since November 1, and up to and including November 19, is urged not to eat it and return it to stores, or contact customer services. The products were not on sale prior to November 1.
In a safety alert, the Food Standards Agency said: “If you have bought the any of the above products and have an allergy to almonds (nuts) do not eat them.
“Instead return them to the store from where they were bought for a full refund. For further details, please contact Flapjackery at [email protected] or customer services on 01822 258008. “
Flapjackery is a Devon-based business that serves flapjack products and gift boxes for delivery. It also has 16 stores across the South West.
Earlier this month, Sainsbury’s recalled a chicken product over a safety risk - with customers urged to return the item for a full refund. Read more here.
