Supermarket Lidl is recalling one of its snack products as some packs have been found to contain salmonella.
The recall affects 200g packets of Lidl Alesto Californian roasted and salted pistachios.
According to the Food Standards Agency, affected packs of pistachios have the best before date of October 4, 2022, and anyone who has bought one of the packets at a Lidl store can return it for a full refund. You do not need a receipt to take it back.

The German discounter has put up signs in store to alert customers to the recall. Symptoms caused by salmonella usually include fever, diarrhoea and abdominal cramps.
A Lidl spokesperson said: "Lidl GB wishes to apologise for any inconvenience caused."
Before Christmas, Lidl had to recall a batch of its 240g Deluxe stuffed dates because of salmonella within some packs, and other supermarkets have also had to issue alerts over salmonella in various products.
Shoppers have also been warned to check their freezers for Tesco Hog Roast Style Pork with Apple Sauce, again because of fears of salmonella contamination.
The affected dates are use by dates January 6, 9, 15 and 17, 2022, February 6, 2022, and March 8 and 9, 2022. While some of these dates may have already passed, the product is suitable for home freezing, so families may have stashed it away to eat later.
