Tesco and Waitrose recall products over allergy fears: ‘Do not eat’

Two major UK supermarkets, Tesco and Waitrose, have issued recalls for specific products due to incorrect labeling that poses allergy risks. Tesco is recalling its 'Coleslaw' product, which may contain mustard not declared on the label, potentially endangering individuals with mustard allergies. The affected product is the 270g packet with a use-by date of September 4. Customers are advised not to consume the product and to return it for a refund. Similarly, Waitrose is recalling its 'Rhubarb Crumble' for containing gluten, which is not listed on the label, posing a risk to those with gluten or oat allergies or coeliac disease. The 500g product has a use-by date of August 19, 2026, but should be consumed within one month of freezing. Both companies have apologized for the inconvenience and emphasized that refunds are available without receipts.
