Urgent recall issued for popular Dunnes Stores product after allergy warning for 'several' batches

An urgent recall notice has been issued by the Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) for a popular Dunnes Stores product amid an allergy warning.

Anyone who has bought Baxter & Greene's Chicken Korma recently should check their labels as cashew nuts were undeclared by the manufacturers.

This could represent a major issue for anyone with a nut allergy, with the FSAI and Dunnes recalling "several" batches on Monday morning.

The notice from the FSAI reads: "The implicated batches of Baxter & Greene Chicken Korma contain cashew nuts that are not mentioned on the label. This may make the batches unsafe for consumers who are allergic to or intolerant of cashew nuts.

"Point-of-sale recall notices will be displayed in Dunnes Stores supplied with the implicated batches."

The affected batches are:

  • Baxter & Greene Chicken Korma; pack size: 540g;
  • Bar code 0262410000000;
  • Best before: 25/07/22, 26/07/22, 27/07/22, 28/07/22 and 29/07/22

Earlier this month, Dunnes Stores recalled a batch of White Sub Rolls after it was discovered they were mispacked with Floury White Baps instead.

According to the Food Safety Authority of Ireland, the baps contain both milk and eggs - which is not mentioned on the sub roll packaging they are in.

This makes the bread rolls unsafe for customers who are intolerant or allergic to eggs or are lactose intolerance.

Eating the baps will have no ill effects on consumers who are able to eat milk and eggs but can cause discomfort and illness in those who are intolerant or allergic.

An intolerance to eggs or milk is when people are unable to fully digest them. It usually causes those affected to experience uncomfortable symptoms such as bloating and diarrhoea after eating eggs or milk.
