HECK recalls Minted Lamb Burgers because of undeclared milk

Why it was recalled

HECK is recalling its Minted Lamb Burgers because some packs were filled with the wrong product, the brand's Steak and Butter Burgers, which contain milk that the lamb burger label does not declare. It is a packing-line mix-up: the box says one thing, the burgers inside may be another.

For anyone with a milk allergy or intolerance, the label mismatch removes the warning they depend on, turning a barbecue staple into a hidden risk.

What you should do

If you have bought the above product and have an allergy or intolerance to milk or milk constituents do not eat it. Instead return it to the store from where it was bought for a full refund with or without a receipt. For more information, please call 01845 567 709 or contact [email protected]

What this means for you

If you or anyone you cook for reacts to milk, do not eat these burgers; with a mix-up like this you cannot tell from the packaging which product you actually have. Return the pack to the store for a full refund, with or without a receipt, or contact HECK by phone or email. People without a dairy allergy face no risk either way. The official FSA notice carries the authoritative batch details and instructions.

Action taken by the business

HECK 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 to its customers. These notices explain to customers why the product is being recalled and tell them what to do if they have bought the product. Please see the attached notice.
