Cadbury recalls thousands of desserts because of bacteria

Müller is recalling Cadbury-branded desserts over fears they could be contaminated with listeria. The company wants people to return some batches of a number of puddings as they may contain the sickness-causing bacteria.

An official alert has been issued by the Food Standards Agency (FSA). The agency said: "Müller has taken the precautionary step of recalling some batches of various Cadbury branded dessert products because of the possible presence of Listeria monocytogenes."

The NHS says listeria can trigger a rare infection called listeriosis. "You can get it from lots of types of food, but it's mainly a problem with chilled, ready-to-eat foods," says the health service.
