Dunnes Stores recalls Moroccan Style Topped Houmous because of undeclared egg and milk

Why it was recalled

Dunnes Stores is recalling its Moroccan Style Topped Houmous because it contains egg and milk, neither of which appears on the label. Houmous is usually a naturally dairy-free and egg-free food, so shoppers with those allergies often treat it as a safe default, precisely the situation where an undeclared allergen does most harm.

The topping-style product involves extra ingredients beyond classic houmous, and two of them never made it onto the label.

Allergens involved: Egg, Milk

What this means for you

If you or anyone in your household is allergic or intolerant to egg or milk, do not eat this houmous. Return it to the store where you bought it for a full refund, or call the Dunnes Stores careline with questions. People without egg or dairy allergies are not at risk from the labelling error. The official FSA notice carries the authoritative date codes and instructions.

Action taken by the business

Dunnes Stores is recalling the above product from customers and has been advised to contact the relevant allergy support organisations, which will tell their members about the recall. The company has also issued a point-of-sale notice which explains to customers the reason for the recall and how to return the product. Please see the attached notice.
