Food recalls are issued when a product is unsafe for customers to consume, or it could cause harm to someone with allergies. Now, major British supermarkets are recalling a dairy product because it contains pieces of metal.
Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Asda, and Iceland are the latest companies to recall a food product that could cause harm to people if eaten.
Yoplait’s Frubes Variety Pack are being recalled because the item contains small pieces of metal.
Yoplait is recalling the product, therefore the supermarkets where it is sold are doing the same.
The variety pack includes strawberry, red berry, and peach flavoured Frubes.
