Boxes of Greggs chicken bakes sold in Iceland have been recalled over fears they could contain pieces of 'hard plastic'. The bakes that have been pulled from freezers have a best before date of September 19, 2022.
Greggs has warned that products with this date could be dangerous to eat. Shoppers are being advised to return the bakes to their nearest Iceland for a refund.
The Mirror reports that you shouldn't need a receipt to get your money back. No other best before dates are included in the recall, issued through the Food Standards Agency (FSA).
The warning does not apply to fresh chicken bakes sold in Greggs stores. In a notice to customers, Greggs said: “This product may contain pieces of hard dark coloured plastic. lf you have purchased the above product please do not consume. Please return to your nearest Iceland store for a full refund.
“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 who are worried or have any questions are being advised to contact Greggs’ customer care line on +44 08081 473 447 or getintouch@greggs.co.uk. When a supermarket product is recalled, you usually don’t need your receipt to get your money back. If a recall involves a branded product, the manufacturer would usually have lead responsibility for the recall action.
