Farmfoods recalls Ritz Cheese Sandwich because allergens are not emphasised on the label
Why it was recalled
Farmfoods is recalling the Ritz Cheese Sandwich snack because the milk, soya and wheat it contains are not emphasised on the label as UK allergen rules require. The recall covers only products originating from Indonesia; stock from other countries is labelled correctly.
Emphasis, usually bold type, is what lets allergic shoppers spot their allergen in seconds. Without it, three of the most common allergens in the UK are effectively hidden in plain sight.
Affected products
| Product | Pack size | Batch codes | Use by |
