Bottles of beer, chicken and rice all being recalled as Tesco, SuperValu, Aldi and Centra all send out alerts

Multiple supermarkets sent out product recalls on Thursday with bottles of beer, chicken and rice all amongst the goods.

Certain batches of 11 different rice products are being urgently recalled from SuperValu and Centra stores across Ireland.

The specific batches are being urgently taken off shelves "due to the possible presence of insects".

Among the affected items are long grain, basmati, brown and wholegrain rice.

The products originated in the Netherlands and recall notices will be displayed in the shops across the country where the implicated batches were sold.

Desperados is warning that its Original Beer flavoured with Tequila could be unsafe for some consumers.

The company says that while the outer packaging of the product is labelled correctly, the individual bottles are not in English.

As the beer contains barley, it could be "unsafe for consumers who are allergic to or intolerant of cereals containing gluten".

The six-back of Desperados beers are the only products subject to the allergen alert and the other pack sizes are not impacted.

The beer is widely sold in shops, supermarkets and off-licenses across Ireland, including Tesco and SuperValu.

Aldi is recalling Roosters Gluten Free Breaded Chicken Fillet Goujons due to the possible presence of salmonella.

The affected products have a pack size of 400g, the batch code 211216, 16:00:00, 16.12.2021, and best before date of December 16, 2022.

Symptoms caused by salmonella can develop anytime between six and 72 hours after an affected product has been consumed.

The most common symptom is diarrhoea, while other signs may include fever, headache and abdominal cramps.
