Tesco is recalling its Creamfields Grated Cheddar due to the fear that there are small pieces of plastic within the cheese. Aldi is recalling their Harvest Morn High Protein Bars because certain allergens may not be emphasised on the label.
These two product recalls are part of Food Standards Agency's newest food and allergy alerts, which occur throughout each month. Here is all you need to know about the products and what to do if you have bought them.
