Tesco's recent product recall may seem routine, but ignoring it could result in severe allergic reactions for those affected. A packaging error has caused two dangerous allergens to go undeclared, leading to nationwide warnings and swift action. Here's why ignoring the recall could have serious consequences.
On 5 September 2025, Tesco issued an urgent recall for its Stir Fry Tikka Chicken (650g) after it was discovered to contain undeclared egg and mustard. The allergens are found in the sauce sachet included in the pack, but they were not mentioned on the label. This labelling oversight creates a serious health hazard for those with egg or mustard allergies.
