Aldi recalls Gianni’s Cheeky Monkey Ice Cream because of undeclared wheat (gluten)

Why it was recalled

Aldi is recalling Gianni's Cheeky Monkey Ice Cream because it contains wheat that is not mentioned on the label. Ice cream is normally a naturally gluten-free treat, but mix-ins like biscuit or brownie pieces can carry wheat into the tub, and here the label never caught up.

This is a children's ice cream, and for coeliac children in particular, treats assumed safe are where undeclared gluten does the most quiet harm.

Allergens involved: Gluten, Wheat
