Tesco urgently recalls popular snack product over 'possible health risk'

A snack product being sold at Tesco is being recalled due to a "possible health risk", and customers are being urged to return it for a full refund.

KP Snacks revealed that certain batches of their Veg Vibes Popchips sea salt and balsamic vinegar flavoured sharing bags 85g were incorrectly filled with sour cream and onion flavoured chips.

Whilst for some this will not pose any health risk, the latter flavour contains milk which is not declared on the packaging of the former.

This means that those with an allergy or intolerance to milk or milk constituents could become sick if they eat the snack.

Taking to Facebook, Tesco wrote: "KP Snacks are recalling their Veg Vibes Popchips sea salt and balsamic vinegar flavour 85g.

"This is because they’ve been incorrectly filled with sour cream and onion flavoured chips that contain milk which is not declared on the label".
