Tesco recalls food products after 'traces of metal' found

Several product recalls have been issued by the Food Standards Agency (FSA) in recent weeks, with Tesco and other supermarket giants urging customers to immediately return certain items to their nearest store because of this.

The FSA shares details on what you should do if you have bought a recalled item, as well as information on why the product is being pulled from shelves, reports HertsLive.

Certain 500g packs of Tesco's own brand Flavoured Whey Protein are currently being recalled because they "may contain small pieces of metal which makes them unsafe to eat", according to the agency.

When a food product has been recalled, customers can get a full refund if they return to items to stores, even if they don't have their receipt. The specific products that are being recalled are listed below.
