Co-op UK recalls Co-op 4 Mini Pork & Pickle Pies because of undeclared milk

Why it was recalled

Co-op is recalling its 4 Mini Pork & Pickle Pies because they contain milk that is not mentioned on the label. Pork pies involve pastry, glazes and fillings where dairy commonly appears, but the declaration was missed on this pack.

Picnic and buffet foods like mini pies are shared by the plateful, often with nobody consulting the packaging, which is how undeclared allergens in this category find their way to allergic eaters.
