GREGGS BAKERY RECALLS STEAK BAKES DUE TO MISLABELLING RISK - 🥧
Report by Duncan Williams for Pulman's Weekly News
Greggs has issued an urgent product recall after some of its two-pack Steak Bakes, sold exclusively at Iceland stores, were found to contain Sausage, Bean and Cheese Melts instead.
The mislabelling poses a potential health risk for people with a sensitivity to sulphur dioxide or sulphites, which are not listed on the label.
The affected products have a best-before date of 19th May 2025. Customers who have purchased these items are advised not to consume them. Instead, they should return the product to the Iceland store where it was bought for a full refund.
The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has issued an Allergy Alert, warning customers about the potential risk. A spokesman for the FSA said, “Greggs is recalling the above product from customers and has contacted the relevant allergy support organisations, which will tell their members about the recall.
“The company has also issued a point-of-sale notice to its customers. These notices explain to customers why the product is being recalled and tell them what to do if they have bought the product.
“If you have bought the above product and have a sensitivity to sulphur dioxide and/or sulphites, do not consume it. Instead, return it to your nearest Iceland store from where it was bought for a full refund.”
For further information, customers can contact Greggs’ Customer Care team on 08081 473 447 or via email at getintouch@greggs.co.uk.
A spokesperson for Greggs added, “This two-pack product is exclusive to Iceland and therefore the recall is only applicable to product purchased from Iceland stores. No other products, date codes, or batches are affected.
“We are very sorry for any inconvenience caused.”
Customers are urged to check their purchases carefully and follow the advice given to ensure their safety.
