Tesco customers are being urged "please do not consume" a particular cheese product that has now been pulled from store fridges.
The supermarket has warned shoppers that one of its grated cheese items has been recalled as a precaution. This is because the cheese may contain small pieces of plastic.
When a product is recalled, for any reason, the Food Safety Agency (FSA) shares details on what you should do if you have bought the item, as well as detailed information on why the product is being pulled from shelves.
