Food recalls have been issued at the leading supermarkets for a variety of reasons, including potential glass in food and incorrect use-by dates being placed on meat.

We have rounded up the ongoing product recalls you should be aware of.

If you have bought any of the items mentioned below, you need to be aware of these possible health risks.

The affected Sandwich Pickle comes in a 295g jar, has a batch code of 3254 and a best before date of September 11, 2025.

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has warned any customers who have already purchased the pickle not to eat it.

“If you require further details please contact customer services directly.”

Aldi Recall

Aldi shoppers have been warned not to eat two pork products from the supermarket as they are “unsafe to eat”.

The two pork products have been labelled incorrectly, with the wrong use-by dates used.

The affected products are the Ashfields Grill Chinese Pork Loin Steaks and BBQ Pork Loin Steaks.

The recall affects 500g packs of the pork with use by dates of June 22.

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has warned any Aldi shopper who has already purchased the pork not to eat it.

An Aldi spokesman said: “As a precautionary measure, our supplier is recalling Chinese Pork Loin Steaks and BBQ Pork Loin Steaks because a small number of products have had the incorrect use by date applied.

“Customers are asked to return this product to their nearest store, where a full refund will be given.

“We apologise that this product did not meet our normal high standards and thank you for your co-operation.”

What is a product recall?

If there is a problem with a food product that means it should not be sold, then it might be 'withdrawn' (taken off the shelves) or 'recalled' (when customers are asked to return the product).

The FSA issues Product Withdrawal Information Notices and Product Recall Information Notices to let consumers and local authorities know about problems associated with food.

In some cases, a 'Food Alert for Action' is issued.

This provides local authorities with details of specific actions to be taken on behalf of consumers.
