It added: “Customer safety is of paramount importance to Marks & Spencer, and we take food safety extremely seriously.”
M&S reassured customers that “only the displayed date codes are impacted” and “no other M&S products are affected.”
The supermarket issued an apology “for any inconvenience caused”.
Food recalls explained
The FSA said: “If you have bought the above product and have an allergy or an intolerance to gluten or have coeliac disease, do not eat it.
“Instead return it to the store from where it was bought for a full refund.
“For more information contact Marks & Spencer on 0333301-48555.”
What is a food recall?
The FSA explains what a food recall is: “If there is a problem with a food product that means it should not be sold, then it might be ‘withdrawn’ (taken off the shelves) or ‘recalled’ (when customers are asked to return the product).
Recommended reading:
“The FSA issues Product Recall Information Notices to let consumers and local authorities know about problems associated with food.
“In some cases, a ‘Food Alert for Action’ is issued.
“This provides local authorities with details of specific action to be taken on behalf of consumers.”
