Morrisons, Lidl, Iceland and other supermarkets are asking customers to check their kitchen cupboards again after safety warnings were issued about food and drink from supermarkets.
Several stores have recalled a number of items in recent weeks, with customers urged not to eat and drink them but instead return them to the store for a full refund. You do not need to have your receipt to get your money back.
When a product is recalled, for any reason, the Food Safety Agency (FSA) shares details on what you should do if you have bought the item, as well as detailed information on why the product is being pulled from shelves.
