Supermarkets across the UK, including Tesco, Sainsbury's, Asda, and Morrisons, have urgently removed Baxters Sliced Gherkins Crunchy & Sweet from their shelves following a Food Standards Agency (FSA) allergy alert. The recall was issued due to the undeclared presence of mustard, which poses a serious health risk to those with allergies.

Baxters Food Group has confirmed that the recall applies only to specific batches, with best-before dates of June 2026 and July 2026. Affected batch codes include 2400059, 2400060, 2400061, and 2400062. The company has urged anyone with a mustard allergy to avoid consuming the product.
